2016 Skoda Octavia S TDI S-A 1.6L Heavy oil · GD16 WSN

The 2025-10-14 MOT at 275,465 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record has been consistently stable since the first test in 2017. Mileage has risen from 13,921 miles in June 2017 to 275,465 miles by October 2025, averaging roughly 32,600 miles per year, which is considerably higher than the typical 10,000‑mile annual usage for a ten‑year‑old car. The data show accelerating usage, with the largest jump occurring between 2023 and 2025, when mileage increased by 141,000 miles in just two years. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, examine the brake discs and calipers for scoring or binding, check the condition of the exhaust system and chassis for rust, and verify tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition, as these components are subject to intensive use at high mileage. While the MOT history shows no recorded failures, the high annual mileage suggests accelerated wear on consumables and mechanical parts, so a thorough in‑person assessment of the listed items is essential before purchase.
