2011 Skoda Yeti 2.0L Diesel · KU11 PKA

This Skoda Yeti presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness record, characterized by a consistent lack of defects across several years of testing. The most recent inspection on 26 February 2026 resulted in a clean pass with no advisories, continuing a trend of fault-free certificates dating back to early 2023. Aside from a single minor issue noted several years ago, the mechanical integrity of the vehicle appears highly consistent. With a recorded mileage of 71,578 miles over a fifteen-year period, the vehicle has averaged approximately 4,772 miles per year. This low annual accumulation suggests the car has been used for short-distance commuting or light duties rather than long-haul motorway travel. Mechanically, this profile typically results in reduced wear on the engine internals and drivetrain components compared to high-mileage examples of the same age. Attention should be directed toward the nearside front outer drive shaft, as a severely deteriorated constant velocity boot was flagged in February 2022. While subsequent tests have been clear, it is important to verify that this component was replaced to prevent joint failure. During a test drive, listen for any rhythmic clicking or popping sounds emanating from the front axle during tight, low-speed manoeuvres or full-lock turns, which would indicate that the joint has suffered grease loss and subsequent wear. Beyond the previous drive shaft advisory, the absence of any recorded corrosion on the subframe or suspension linkages over the last four years is a positive indicator for a vehicle of this vintage. A physical inspection should still confirm the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, feeling for any excessive play in the steering or knocks when traversing uneven surfaces, to ensure the current clean MOT status reflects the actual physical condition of the chassis.
