2013 Skoda Octavia 1.6L Diesel · DA13 WRZ

The Skoda Octavia passed its most recent MOT on 29 October 2024 at 248,028 miles with no defects recorded, placing its current roadworthiness status as clear on official test evidence. The maintenance trend cannot be judged as stable, worsening, or improving from this single clean result, as the supplied record contains only one entry and shows no prior advisories or failures to compare against. The vehicle is a 2013 model with 248,028 miles on the clock, equating to roughly 19,079 miles per year and marking it as high mileage for its age. The lone MOT entry from October 2024 gives no visibility of earlier annual tests, so the record is sparse and offers no basis to identify rapid accumulation or standing gaps across its 13-year life. A clean pass at this mileage implies the presenting owner addressed any wear before test, but the absence of history leaves previous upkeep patterns unknown. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and structural corrosion given the mileage, as high-use cars commonly develop unseen fatigue between tests. The tester flagged nothing on 29 October 2024, yet consumable items such as tyres and wiper blades may have been borderline and omitted from advisories. Given the thin record, verify the odometer against service stamps and V5C before purchase. The Octavia's drivetrain and subframes warrant scrutiny for fatigue consistent with 248,028 miles, regardless of the clean MOT outcome.
