2017 Skoda Kodiaq 1.4L Petrol · DA67 NKC

The Skoda Kodiaq presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 19 November 2025 at 28,474 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the history, which indicates the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that satisfies annual statutory inspection without intervention. Annual mileage sits well below typical expectations for a 2017 registration. The records show 15,737 miles in November 2021, rising to 19,824 by November 2022, 23,086 by November 2023, 26,162 by November 2024, and 28,474 by November 2025. That equates to roughly 3,100 miles per year across the board, with no sudden accumulation or dormant gaps. The consistently low figures and clean passes suggest a lightly used vehicle, likely kept by an owner who covered short local journeys rather than high-speed motorway cycles. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection before purchase. Low mileage combined with the 2025 test being eight months stale relative to today means fluid degradation, perished rubber bushes, and corroding brake discs from standing could exist despite the absence of recorded faults. The suspension arms, subframe mounts, and underbody structure warrant close checking for moisture-related corrosion. Given the lack of any prior advisories on tyres, exhaust emissions, or binding calipers, the Kodiaq shows no recurring defect pattern requiring corrective action. The evidence points to conscientious upkeep, but physical verification of consumables and structural integrity remains prudent given the vehicle's age and limited use.
