2013 Skoda Rapid 1.2L Petrol · DA10 TOT

The Skoda Rapid presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 27 December 2025 at 116,588 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from December 2022 through December 2024 also passed clean. The duplicated 13 December 2023 entry shows a fail and pass on the same day at 101,822 miles with no defects listed, indicating an administrative re-test rather than a mechanical fault. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or worsening condition across the five-year record. Annual mileage sits at roughly 8,968 miles, typical for a 2013 car now at 116,588 miles. The record moves from 86,509 miles in December 2022 to 101,822 miles in December 2023, then 112,922 miles in December 2024 and 116,588 miles in December 2025. The largest single-year gain was 15,313 miles between the 2022 and 2023 tests; subsequent years dropped to under 12,000 miles. No standing gaps or abrupt accumulation appear beyond that one period, and the clean sheet across all dates suggests consistent use without neglected intervals. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and 116,588 miles. The MOT history flags no corrosion, binding calipers, or exhaust emissions issues, but DVSA tests at this mileage can miss early wear hidden behind passes with no advisories. Verify the duplicate December 2023 failure paperwork to confirm it was clerical and not a suppressed defect. Previous owners kept the Rapids test schedule yearly and avoided visible consumable neglect, as no tyre, wiper, or lamp advisories appear. The absence of recorded faults implies basic upkeep was met, though a 13-year-old Skoda at this mileage warrants underside checks for structural integrity before purchase.
