2011 Skoda Octavia 1.6L Diesel · FN61 KTG

The Skoda Octavia presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 28 August 2025 at 81,482 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean results since September 2022. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the supplied history, indicating consistent statutory compliance. Recorded mileage sits at 81,482 against a 2011 build, averaging roughly 5,432 miles per year. The test on 2 September 2022 logged 70,301 miles, rising to 74,979 by 14 September 2023, then 79,666 on 20 September 2024 and 81,482 on 28 August 2025. Annual accumulation stayed between 4,000 and 5,000 miles with no sudden jumps. The only anomaly is the 13 September 2023 failure at 74,960 miles with no defects listed, reversed by a pass the next day at 74,979 miles; this suggests an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical defect. The clean MOT sequence gives no cause to suspect worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, or failing brake components. Low mileage and a 15-year age still warrant a physical inspection for perished rubber, standing-water corrosion in sills and subframes, and degraded tyres or wiper blades from intermittent use. A buyer should confirm service history and check for undertray rust the tester may not have probed. Given the absence of flagged wear items in the record, previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to pass standard. The 2023 same-week fail-pass without defects implies no ongoing fault trend. Prior to purchase, verify the timing belt interval for this engine and assess real-world brake disc condition beyond the emissions and lighting checks a test covers.
