2014 Skoda Octavia 2.0L Diesel · KW14 AOD

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent recorded test conducted on September 22, 2021 at 96,887 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories, indicating that the car was maintained to a high standard up to that point. This clean result suggests that the previous owner addressed any mechanical or safety concerns before they triggered a test failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per year. Data shows a significant jump of 21,807 miles between June 2018 and August 2019, followed by more steady accumulation of roughly 7,000 to 8,000 miles annually. While the last MOT entry is dated to September 2021, the vehicle has now gone nearly five years without an official recorded check. This gap represents a risk regarding the current state of consumables and hard-wear components that may have degraded since the last inspection. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking system, as the only recorded fault in the history involved worn tyres in 2017 at 39,738 miles. Although the subsequent tests were clean, the age of the vehicle means rubber components like suspension bushes and control arms may be perished regardless of the relatively low mileage. Given the time elapsed since the last MOT, a thorough check for brake caliper corrosion and the structural integrity of the exhaust system is essential to ensure no significant decay has developed during the period of unrecorded use.
