2015 Skoda Yeti 2.0L Diesel · GJ15 OFP

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 2026-04-02—just three months ago—confirms it passed without defects, though the record notes an unusual dual entry (both pass and fail at identical mileage). This suggests a potential administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical issue, as no faults were logged. The preceding tests from 2025 and 2024 also passed cleanly, indicating a consistent pattern of compliance with MOT standards. However, the lack of advisories or defects over this period does not preclude hidden wear—especially in high-stress components like suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake calipers—which are not routinely inspected beyond MOT thresholds. The recorded mileage of 90,204 miles over approximately 11 years (as of 2026) averages around 8,200 miles annually, a rate typical for a vehicle of this age. There are no significant gaps or spikes in mileage between tests, with intervals of roughly 12 months between each MOT. This suggests the vehicle has been used steadily without prolonged periods of neglect or excessive wear. However, the absence of service records means critical maintenance—such as fluid changes, timing belt inspections, or differential servicing—cannot be verified from this data alone. Given the clean MOT history, the primary focus for an in-person inspection should centre on components not routinely tested: the suspension geometry, particularly for worn or cracked coil springs and degraded bushes, which could compromise handling. The braking system warrants scrutiny beyond the MOT’s static checks—look for uneven disc wear, glazed pads, or binding calipers, which might not have been detected during the test. Structural integrity is another concern; inspect the underbody for corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, as rust can compromise the vehicle’s load-bearing capacity. Finally, verify the exhaust system for leaks or excessive corrosion, as catalytic converter efficiency is not always flagged until it fails outright. The lack of advisories in past tests does not guarantee these areas are flawless.
