2019 Skoda Karoq 2.0L Diesel · FP69 MXR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a recurring trend of neglect regarding tyre condition. The most recent test on 18 June 2026 at 81,260 miles resulted in a failure due to a damaged nearside rear tyre with exposed cords. While the vehicle passed the immediate retest that same day, the nearside front tyre also showed a cut. This suggests the previous owner only addressed consumable faults once they reached a failure threshold rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,600 miles per annum. The record shows steady accumulation of miles, with roughly 8,200 miles driven between June 2024 and May 2025, and another 9,000 miles between May 2025 and June 2026. This regular usage is generally positive for mechanical components as it prevents seals from drying out, though it confirms that the vehicle has been subjected to standard operational wear and tear on the suspension and braking systems. A buyer must inspect the suspension and wheel alignment closely, as the record flags multiple instances of uneven tyre wear. In November 2022, rear tyres were wearing on edges, and by May 2025, the offside front was also worn on the edge. These recurring faults often indicate a persistent geometry issue or worn suspension bushes that remain unaddressed. Additionally, the light misting on the offside front shock absorber noted in 2025 should be re-examined to ensure the leak has not progressed to a full failure requiring immediate replacement.
