2016 Skoda Yeti 2.0L Diesel · KS16 XGD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection on 26 May 2026 at 75,883 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car maintained a clean record without defects between 2022 and 2024. While the latest test identified a central front oil leak, the tester determined it was not excessive enough to warrant failure, suggesting a minor issue that requires monitoring rather than immediate escalation. The mileage pattern is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per year. There is a noticeable increase in usage between November 2024 and May 2026, where the car covered 14,080 miles in just eighteen months, compared to the previous annual average of roughly 9,500 miles seen between 2022 and 2024. This recent spike suggests the vehicle may have seen more frequent use lately, which typically accelerates the wear on consumable components like brake pads and suspension bushings. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the engine bay to locate the central front oil leak and determine if it originates from the timing cover gasket or oil pan seal. Given the recent mileage increase, it is vital to check the condition of the tyres, specifically the nearside rear which was previously noted for a cut in 2025. The record shows no history of structural corrosion or mechanical failures, but a physical check of the suspension arms and coil springs for perished rubber is advisable to ensure the increased usage has not compromised the chassis integrity.
