2018 Skoda Rapid 1.0L Petrol · DA68 KXH

The Skoda Rapid presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 December 2025 at 20,480 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT results across every annual examination since 2021. Annual mileage sits well below typical expectations for an eight-year-old car. The record shows 11,442 miles in November 2021, rising to 13,197 by November 2022, 16,646 by November 2023, 18,173 by November 2024, and 20,480 by December 2025. That equates to roughly 2,560 miles per year. No gaps or sudden accumulation appear; the odometer advanced steadily and modestly each cycle, indicating light use with likely prolonged standing periods between short journeys. No advisories or failures appear anywhere in the history, so the DVSA data reveals no recurring suspension, braking, or corrosion issues to track. A clean sheet across five tests suggests the previous keeper kept basic upkeep current rather than deferring consumable replacement until forced. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the spotless record. Low mileage and standing invite perished rubber components, flat-spotted tyres, seized brake calipers, and superficial structural rust unseen in an MOT bay. Verify underseal condition, brake freedom, and fluid intervals before purchase.
