2013 Skoda Octavia 2.0L Diesel · E6 GRG

The vehicle is roadworthy, with a stable maintenance trend confirmed by the most recent MOT on 8 July 2025 at 140,182 miles, which passed without any recorded defects or advisories. All five consecutive annual tests from 1 June 2021 to 8 July 2025 show a clean record, indicating no emerging mechanical or structural issues. Mileage has risen from 94,989 miles on 1 June 2021 to 130,137 miles on 10 July 2024 and then to 140,182 miles on 8 July 2025, averaging roughly 10,800 miles per year. This progression aligns with typical usage for a thirteen‑year‑old 2013 Skoda Octavia and shows no abrupt jumps or prolonged gaps that would suggest periods of neglect or unusually heavy loading. The steady increase each year, coupled with the absence of recorded faults, points to consistent care by previous owners. A buyer should still inspect consumable wear items that the MOT does not flag. Check tyre tread depth and sidewall condition for uneven wear, and verify that wheel rims are free of corrosion. Examine brake discs and pads for thickness and any scoring that could indicate hidden wear. Inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, and mounting points for signs of fatigue or looseness, and assess the exhaust system for rust, cracks, or leaks. A visual survey of the under‑body for any emerging structural rust will complete a thorough pre‑purchase appraisal.
