2016 Skoda Citigo 1.0L Petrol · FN16 AET

The 2016 Skoda Citigo presents a stable and improving mechanical trajectory, culminating in a completely clean MOT test on 18 March 2026 at 95,969 miles. The tester recorded zero defects, confirming that the vehicle currently meets all roadworthiness standards. This unblemished result follows a 2023 test where front brake components drew advisories, indicating those wearing parts have since been rectified rather than neglected. Accumulating 95,969 miles over ten years equates to an average annual mileage of roughly 9,600 miles, which is entirely typical for this class of vehicle. The mileage progression shows consistent usage without alarming gaps or sudden spikes. Between the March 2022 test at 56,094 miles and the April 2023 test at 68,142 miles, the car covered approximately 12,000 miles. Subsequent annual intervals show a steady rhythm, covering 8,379 miles between April 2023 and March 2024, 8,379 miles between March 2024 and March 2025, and 9,108 miles between March 2025 and March 2026. This pattern suggests regular, daily use rather than prolonged periods of inactivity. Despite the clean recent records, a physical inspection should focus on the components that previously drew advisories. The April 2023 test flagged front brake discs for wear, pitting, and scoring, alongside thin front brake pads, meaning these parts have likely undergone replacement since then. A buyer should verify the quality of this repair by checking the current condition of the front brake discs and pads, while also scrutinizing the rear braking system for similar wear or binding issues. At nearly 96,000 miles, the exhaust system, suspension bushes, and coil springs will have endured substantial fatigue. Inspect the underside thoroughly for corrosion, particularly on the exhaust and structural mounting points, and test the suspension for any knocking or deterioration of the bushes that typically degrade on urban-run city cars.
