2013 Skoda Citigo 1.0L Petrol · DA62 XKD

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent MOT test on 10 April 2026 at 49,224 miles passed with no recorded defects, following a technical failure just one day prior at 49,222 miles. Because the failure recorded no defects, it likely indicates an administrative error or a minor sensor trip that was immediately rectified rather than a mechanical fault. Since April 2023, the car has maintained a perfect record without any advisory notices regarding wear or corrosion. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,786 miles per year. Between April 2023 and April 2024, the car covered only 810 miles, suggesting long periods of stationary or very light use. The subsequent interval saw 3,240 miles covered, which shows a slight increase in usage but remains well below national averages. While this low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it often exposes rubber-based parts and braking systems to accelerated degradation from lack of mechanical movement. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to low-mileage neglect. Check the brake discs and calipers for pitting or seizing, which frequently occurs when a vehicle sits idle for extended periods. Inspect the suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls for cracking or dry rot, as these materials age over time regardless of the distance driven. Given the age of the vehicle, verify the structural integrity of the chassis for early signs of corrosion, although the MOT history shows no prior evidence of structural failure.
