2021 Skoda Karoq SE Drive TSI 1.0L Petrol · DC21 CZK

The Skoda Karoq presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 8 July 2025 at 71,477 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. The vehicle cleared its annual examination without advisories on wear items such as tyres, brake discs, or suspension bushes. Prior to this, the June 2024 history shows a clean pass on 22 June 2024 at 58,538 miles, following a failed attempt on 21 June 2024 at the same mileage with no defects formally logged by the tester. Mileage accumulation sits at roughly 14,295 miles per year against a five-year-old vehicle, a high figure for its age that points to sustained motorway or business use rather than short urban commuting. The odometer moved from 58,538 miles in June 2024 to 71,477 miles by July 2025, an annual delta of about 12,939 miles. The record is sparse, with only three entries, and shows no progressive corrosion, exhaust emissions breaches, or structural integrity concerns across the timeline. The anomalous failure on 21 June 2024 with zero defects recorded suggests an administrative or procedural rejection, likely a documentation or equipment issue at the testing station, immediately rectified by the pass next day. No recurring mechanical faults, binding calipers, coil spring fractures, or worn suspension components appear in the data. The previous owner maintained statutory testing discipline, clearing the car without outstanding advisories on consumables. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the brake calipers, front suspension arms, and underbody for latent corrosion given the elevated mileage. Verify the 2024 failure cause with the presenting garage. Check tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition despite the clean advisories, as these consumables wear with high annual use and may fall below limits before the next test.
