2020 Skoda Superb 1.5L Petrol · GL20 EBF

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on June 30, 2025 at 73,560 miles with no recorded defects. This indicates an improving maintenance trend following a failure in mid-2024. The transition from a failed test to a clean pass suggests that the previous owner addressed the mechanical and safety concerns identified by the tester during the prior inspection cycle. At 73,560 miles over six years, this Superb has averaged approximately 12,260 miles per annum. This sits above the UK national average for modern passenger cars and places higher demand on wear-related components. The mileage data shows consistent usage, with roughly 5,300 miles covered between July 2023 and another 5,700 miles covered by July 2024. This regular interval generally prevents issues associated with vehicle standing, but accelerates the degradation of the suspension and braking systems. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the offside front shock absorber. The tester flagged light misting of oil at both 66,994 and 67,003 miles in 2024, and while this did not cause a failure, misting indicates a failing seal that will eventually lead to a significant leak. The 2024 record also noted cracking and perishing on the nearside front and offside rear tyres, alongside a deep cut on the offside rear tyre. While these should have been replaced, the buyer must verify the current age and condition of all four tyres to ensure no further degradation has occurred.
