2018 Skoda Octavia 1.4L Petrol · FM67 EEY

The Skoda Octavia presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 December 2025 at 48,856 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT results across every annual examination since 2021. Annual mileage has stayed low for an eight-year-old vehicle. The record shows 12,166 miles in December 2021, rising to 20,509 by December 2022, 27,961 by December 2023, 35,114 by December 2024, and 48,856 by December 2025. That equates to roughly 6,100 miles per year with no sudden jumps or dormant gaps. The clean sheets at each interval suggest the previous keeper used the car lightly and kept up with basic servicing, though no advisory items were logged at any stage to reveal wear on consumables. With no advisories or failures on file, the tester never flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection beneath the sills and subframe for hidden rust, and check the condition of tyres, wiper blades, and brake calipers that a pass with no defects would not capture. Given the sparse but consistently clear history, the Octavia shows no evidence of recurring mechanical faults or skipped upkeep. The low yearly use means drivetrain and suspension components have seen limited cycle loading, though standing periods can allow perished seals or flat-spotted tyres to develop unnoticed.
