2011 Skoda Roomster 1.4L Diesel · CY11 DMZ

The Skoda Roomster presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 28 February 2024 at 111,124 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual tests also passed cleanly. The single failure on 26 January 2022 at 97,477 miles listed no defects, indicating an administrative or unrecorded minor rejection rather than a mechanical fault, with the vehicle passing six days later at 97,506 miles. Recorded mileage sits at 111,124 against a 2011 build, averaging roughly 7,400 miles per year, which is typical for the age. The gap between the January 2022 failure and the February 2024 pass covers two years and about 13,600 miles of accrual, a normal rate with no rapid accumulation or long-standing periods suggested by the data. The clean sheet across all tests means the history gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repair. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle is fifteen years old and corrosion advisories are common on untouched MOT records of this era. The absence of flagged exhaust emissions or binding calipers in the DVSA data implies no recurring mechanical trend, but underside structural integrity and subframe rust should be confirmed on the ramp. Given the sparse but clean record, previous ownership appears to have kept basic upkeep current. The 2022 failure with no defects recorded points to a paperwork or tester discrepancy rather than skipped maintenance. Treat the car as mechanically sound on paper, subject to a standard pre-purchase check.
