2018 Skoda Superb 2.0L Petrol · KV68 FWZ

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistently stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 14 April 2025 at 42,335 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets all legal safety requirements. Following a single failure in April 2023, the vehicle has cleared consecutive annual inspections without issue, suggesting that mechanical and structural components are being maintained effectively. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,300 miles per year. Data from the April 2022 test at 21,424 miles to the April 2025 test at 42,335 miles shows a steady accumulation of roughly 7,000 miles per annual interval. This low-usage pattern typically implies reduced wear on drivetrain components and engine internals compared to high-mileage counterparts. However, periods of low use can sometimes lead to brake disc corrosion or the degradation of rubber-based suspension components through lack of movement. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to low-mileage storage issues. While the record shows no recurring mechanical failures, the tester flagged a failure in April 2023 at 28,797 miles which was rectified immediately for the subsequent pass. One should check the brake discs for pitting and inspect the suspension bushes for cracking, as these occur over time regardless of distance driven. Given the age relative to the mileage, verifying the condition of the tyres for dry rot is also essential to ensure the rubber has not perished despite having significant tread depth.
