2022 Skoda Karoq SE Drive TSI S-A 1.5L Petrol · EX22 KYS

The vehicle remains roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 5 May 2026 at 23,292 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but reveals a recurring lack of attention to consumable items. While the car passed the test without any mechanical failures or structural defects, the persistence of advisories regarding tyre condition across two consecutive years indicates that the owner is deferring routine maintenance until components reach the legal limit. The mileage profile is notably low for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per annum. Between the April 2025 test at 19,019 miles and the 2026 test at 23,292 miles, the car covered only 4,273 miles. This low usage suggests light mechanical strain and generally preserves the drivetrain components, though long stationary periods can sometimes lead to flat spotting on tyres or premature degradation of exposed rubber components. A buyer must conduct a physical inspection of the rear axle and suspension geometry. The fact that both the nearside and offside rear tyres showed wear on the edge in consecutive tests suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. You should also check the brake discs for signs of uneven corrosion or pitting, as low-mile vehicles often suffer from brakes not being used enough to clear surface rust. Ensure the current set of tyres has been replaced recently, as the previous set was already nearing failure.
