2020 Skoda Kamiq 1.0L Petrol · JM03 SYM

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in August 2025, but this result followed a failure on the very same day due to dangerous tyre defects. Both front tyres were unroadworthy, with the nearside front suffering a deep cut reaching the ply and the offside front having exposed cords. This suggests the owner had to replace both front tyres immediately to rectify the failure and secure the pass. The mileage history reveals a significant and recent increase in usage. While the overall annual average is typical for this age, the car covered over 20,000 miles between the August 2024 and August 2025 tests. This spike indicates the vehicle is currently being used for high mileage, which places accelerated stress on consumables like brakes, tyres, and suspension. The trend suggests maintenance is reactive rather than proactive. In 2024, an advisory noted that the front brake pads were wearing thin. Crucially, the vehicle has now travelled a further 20,000 miles since that warning was issued. It is highly likely that the front brake pads are now completely worn out and may require immediate attention, despite the lack of a specific defect recorded in the latest pass.
