2017 Skoda Citigo 1.0L Petrol · CV17 GVY

The Skoda Citigo presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 December 2025 at 20,826 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean MOT outcomes across four consecutive annual examinations. The mileage pattern confirms exceptionally light use for a 2017 registered vehicle. The record shows 9,453 miles at the 31 March 2022 test, rising to 14,243 miles by 14 April 2023, then 19,217 miles at the 12 June 2024 test, and 20,826 miles by December 2025. Annual accumulation averaged well under 3,000 miles. Such low figures suggest long stationary periods, which can allow corrosion, perished rubber components, and seized brake calipers to develop even where the MOT shows no fault. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and intermittent use. The DVSA history flags no advisories on tyres, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity, so no recurring mechanical fault pattern exists in the data. Pre-purchase checks ought to focus on underbody corrosion and brake binding from disuse rather than wear driven by high mileage. The clean test record implies prior owners kept basic statutory maintenance current, though it does not evidence deeper mechanical servicing such as cambelt or fluid intervals.
