2012 Skoda Octavia 1.6L Diesel · CE12 KWP

The vehicle's MOT history shows a stable passing trend over the last four years, though the most recent sequence indicates a recent inspection issue. While the February 2026 test at 123,248 miles resulted in a pass, this followed a failure on 10 February 2026. The record does not specify the exact nature of the defects that caused the failure five days prior, but the immediate subsequent pass suggests the necessary repairs were completed to meet minimum standards. The recorded mileage of 123,248 miles for a 2012 model represents an average annual usage of approximately 8,800 miles. This pattern appears consistent with typical long-term use for a vehicle of this age. The MOT entries are current, with the most recent test occurring in February 2026, roughly six months prior to the current date. There are no significant gaps in the annual testing cycle between 2023 and 2026. Because the 2026 failure lacks specific defect descriptions in the provided data, a physical inspection is necessary to identify what required rectification. A buyer should focus on checking the condition of common wear items that often trigger failures, such as brake pad thickness, disc corrosion, tyre tread depths, and the integrity of suspension bushes or coil springs. Given the age and mileage, inspecting the underside for structural corrosion and checking exhaust emissions levels would also be prudent.
