2019 Skoda Karoq 1.6L Diesel · FP69 EAC

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-08-14 at 60,372 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. However, the preceding test on 2025-08-13 at 60,371 miles showed a fail without recorded defects, suggesting a potential administrative anomaly or minor technical issue unresolved. The 2024-08-14 test at 51,159 miles also passed with no defects, while the 2022-12-02 test at 33,004 miles similarly showed no issues. Overall, the record lacks significant mechanical concerns, though the abrupt fail/pass sequence in late 2025 requires scrutiny. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage, averaging 8,625 miles annually over seven years. The 2022-12-02 to 2024-08-14 interval saw 18,155 miles logged over 1.8 years, reflecting slightly higher annual usage, while the 2024-08-14 to 2025-08-14 period added 9,213 miles. No rapid accumulation or extended inactivity is evident. The MOT history is sparse but clean, with no recurring faults or structural issues flagged. This suggests consistent maintenance, though the absence of defects in both pass and fail tests raises questions about the reliability of the 2025-08-13 failure. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these components often degrade over time without immediate MOT consequences. Brake discs and calipers should also be checked for uneven wear or binding, as these can develop gradually. While the MOT records show no corrosion or structural damage, a physical inspection is essential to confirm the vehicle’s integrity, particularly around the chassis and underbody. The lack of recorded defects does not eliminate the need for a thorough pre-purchase check, as some issues may not trigger MOT failures.
