2019 Skoda Karoq 1.0L Petrol · FN19 WNS

The Skoda Karoq presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 25 April 2025 at 74,765 miles, with the maintenance trend stable across its recorded history. The vehicle cleared every test that recorded a result, showing no advisories or defects in the official DVLA data. A failed test on 14 April 2025 at 74,206 miles listed no defects, and the car passed eleven days later, which suggests an administrative or retest anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage averages 10,681 against the car's seven-year life, a typical figure for this age of vehicle. The records show stepped accumulation: 16,467 miles by April 2022, rising to 35,626 by April 2023, then 54,708 by April 2024, and 74,765 by April 2025. The owner added roughly 19,000 miles in the final year, nearly double the prior yearly rate, but no single gap or sudden jump breaks the pattern. The clean sheet at each examination indicates the previous keeper kept consumables and structure within limits. With no corrosion, suspension bush wear, brake binding, or exhaust emission faults logged, the buyer faces low documented risk. The absence of advisories across five tests implies basic upkeep was not skipped. A pre-purchase inspection should still confirm underbody structural integrity and check brake disc thickness, as these items escape MOT notation when within tolerance but degrade with use. Given the 2025 failure carried zero recorded defects, verify the DVSA reason with the selling garage before purchase. The current date of 8 July 2026 leaves the last pass aged about fourteen months, so the next test is due by late April 2026 and now overdue. Arrange a fresh test or inspection before committing funds.
