2015 Skoda Yeti 1.6L Diesel · DA15 KWD

The Skoda Yeti presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 26 August 2025 at 49,266 miles, where the tester issued a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable. The vehicle cleared every assessment from 2023 through 2025 without a single advisory or fault, showing consistent mechanical condition across the period. Recorded mileage sits at 49,266 against an 11-year-old vehicle, equating to roughly 4,479 miles per year. The odometer moved only 1,440 miles between the 5 September 2023 test at 46,923 miles and the 5 September 2024 test at 48,363 miles, then just 903 miles to the August 2025 pass at 49,266. Such low annual use implies light running, though extended standing periods can allow corrosion or perished rubber components to develop unseen. Two failed entries on 5 September 2024 and 26 August 2025 both show zero recorded defects, indicating administrative or documentation failures rather than mechanical faults. The clean pass that followed on each same-day retest confirms no underlying wear was present. No advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural integrity appeared at any stage. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection given the sparse history. Check for underbody corrosion, degraded suspension bushes from low-use standing, and brake caliper binding after prolonged inactivity. The DVSA record alone shows no active concerns, but hands-on verification of consumables remains prudent before purchase.
