Our Verdict
A strong candidate for city driving with a clean recent MOT history. The consistent passing record without defects suggests a vehicle that has met minimum safety standards consistently over the last five years.
When viewing this Citigo, check that the service history aligns with the steady mileage increases seen in the MOT records. While the MOTs show no defects, you should still verify that oil changes and routine maintenance have been performed regularly to support the small 1.0L engine.
Negotiate based on the service book evidence rather than the MOT results alone. Because the MOT history is clear of failures, your focus should be on the physical condition of the white paintwork and the interior, as these are not captured in the MOT data.
The 999cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, making this a low-cost option for urban commuting. Expect relatively low insurance groups and favourable tax bands typical for this engine size.
Maintenance costs for a Citigo are generally modest due to the simplicity of its mechanical components. An estimated annual running cost would cover fuel, tax, insurance, and basic servicing.
Since the MOT history from 2021 to 2025 shows no recorded defects, there are no specific recurring failure patterns to alert you to on this particular vehicle. However, you should perform a standard inspection of tyres, brakes, and lights.
Given the mileage of 61,538, inspect the clutch bite point and the condition of the suspension components. Even though no MOT advisories were noted, a physical check of the underside for any signs of corrosion is always prudent for a vehicle of this age.
This 2015 Skoda Citigo, finished in white, has covered 61,538 miles since its first registration in December 2015. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passing tests from 2021 through to late 2025 without a single recorded defect or advisory. For a 999cc petrol model, the mileage progression appears steady and predictable.
No aggregate MOT data is available for the Skoda Citigo to provide a specific reliability reputation for this model.

Historical fault & advisory patterns
Common Problems: SKODA CITIGO
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- ASG automated-manual gearbox judder and neutral drops(Serious)
The optional ASG 'Easy' box on the 1.0 MPI is a single-clutch automated manual, not a torque-converter or DSG. Fault File records owners reporting the car hesitating from a stop, clunking into gear or momentarily dropping into neutral by itself, with clutch and actuator replacements running into four figures; specialist remanufacturer ASR Gearbox Repairs lists the same pattern - gear slippage, delayed engagement, premature clutch wear and control-module faults - as the recurring Citigo automatic complaint. Manual cars are unaffected, which is why clean manuals hold their value.
- Fuel system leaks and filler-cap MOT failures(Moderate)
Citigos fail the MOT fuel test far more often than peers: Fault File's DVSA-derived table shows 'fuel system leaking, or missing or ineffective filler cap' on 1.3 per cent of tests against a class average that rounds to 0.0 per cent, and Get Car Wise measures the same signature at roughly 28 times the national fleet average, tying it to the tank ventilation circuit, carbon canister and caps that no longer seal. A new cap is cheap; a cracked canister or perished vent line is a few hundred pounds and an instant test failure in the meantime. Smell for petrol around the car before you bid.
- Binding brakes and excessive handbrake travel(Moderate)
The small-diameter Citigo brakes corrode rather than wear out. Fault File's MOT table flags 'binding brake' advisories at three times the class average (2.1 per cent against 0.7 per cent) plus corroded brake pipes, and Get Car Wise tracks handbrake adjustment faults at around 9.5 times the fleet average and axle brake imbalance at 5.5 times - typically seized rear shoes, sticking caliper slides or a stretched cable that the rear drum's self-adjuster has failed to wind in. It is cheap to sort if caught early and an MOT fail if ignored.
