2016 Skoda Citigo 1.0L Petrol · DX16 VRO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 23 April 2026 at 67,737 miles. The maintenance trend appears generally stable, though a mechanical failure just two days prior to that pass indicates a specific issue. At 67,728 miles, the tester flagged the offside rear service brake for binding excessively. The immediate resolution of this defect suggests the owner addressed the fault promptly to maintain legal road status. The mileage profile is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,774 miles per year. Data shows a steady accumulation of use, moving from 55,705 miles in March 2023 to 60,005 miles in March 2024, and reaching 64,458 miles by April 2025. This regularity suggests the car has not suffered long periods of stagnation, which often benefits the condition of rubber components and the prevention of internal corrosion within brake lines. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the rear braking system to ensure the binding issue identified in April 2026 was properly rectified rather than merely cleaned. Check for uneven wear on the brake discs and signs of heat damage to the offside rear caliper. While the 2025 advisory regarding the tailgate failing to open from the inside is a minor mechanical nuisance, the latch mechanism should be tested for free operation. Beyond these specific points, the lack of structural corrosion or recurring suspension failures in the record indicates a well-maintained example for its age.
