2010 Skoda Superb 2.0L Diesel · KU59 LWF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a recent decline in proactive consumable care. The most recent test on August 8 2025 at 136,113 miles resulted in a failure due to insufficient tyre tread depth on both the offside and nearside front tyres. While the vehicle passed the re-test immediately after, the presence of a non-excessive oil leak indicates that the owner is only addressing faults once they trigger an MOT failure rather than performing preventative maintenance. At 136,114 miles over 16 years, the Skoda Superb averages approximately 8,500 miles per annum, which aligns with typical annual usage for a vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent usage patterns between 2022 and 2025, with mileage increments of roughly 5,000 to 7,500 miles between annual inspections. The jump of 7,465 miles between July 2024 and August 2025 suggests a steady driving habit, though the low mileage does not exempt the vehicle from age-related rubber degradation. A buyer should personally inspect the engine bay to identify the source of the oil leak flagged in the 2025 test, as even minor leaks can indicate aging gaskets or seals that may worsen over time. The history of multiple tyre cuts recorded in 2023 suggests potentially rough driving conditions or poor rim awareness, which warrants a check of the current suspension integrity. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough inspection of structural corrosion and suspension bushes is essential, as these components are not captured by the MOT until they reach critical failure.
