2015 Skoda Rapid 1.6L Diesel · CE15 TTO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy. The most recent MOT on 2026‑03‑10 recorded 42 846 miles and returned a pass with no defects, confirming a stable maintenance trend. The only recorded failure occurred on 2019‑03‑16 at 23 680 miles when the rear registration plate inscription was illegible (0.1 (b)), and all subsequent tests have been clean, indicating the issue was isolated and resolved. Mileage accumulation has been modest for an 11‑year‑old car. Between the 2018‑03‑17 test at 19 675 miles and the latest reading, the vehicle has added roughly 23 171 miles over eight years, averaging about 3 900 miles per year. The annual MOT intervals show a consistent pattern with no sudden spikes in mileage, suggesting either light use or extended periods of inactivity. The data set is sparse but uniformly clean, reinforcing the low‑wear profile. A buyer should inspect the rear registration plate illumination and lens for clarity, as the 2019 failure relates to plate legibility. Suspension bushes and coil springs should be examined for cracking or compression, while brake calipers need checking for binding and discs for uneven wear. Tyre tread depth and sidewall condition are critical despite low mileage, as prolonged static storage can cause flat spots. Look for corrosion on chassis members, exhaust mounts, and under‑body panels, and verify fluid levels, battery health, and fuel condition to detect any neglect from extended idle periods.
