2020 Skoda Karoq 1.5L Petrol · LB70 AEY

The Skoda Karoq presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 31 March 2026 at 45,547 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing a clean run that began with the 23 November 2023 examination at 29,533 miles and the 22 November 2024 test at 36,321 miles. No advisories or failures appear across the three available records, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the MOT regime during this period. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,591 miles against a six-year lifespan, a typical figure for the age. The records show consistent yearly use rather than long standing periods: the car covered 6,788 miles between November 2023 and November 2024, then 9,226 miles to the March 2026 test. The history is sparse but entirely clean, with no gaps exceeding normal test windows and no rapid accumulation that would accelerate drivetrain or suspension fatigue. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished MOT trail. The absence of advisories means testers did not flag worn suspension bushes, corroded structural members, or thinning brake discs, yet these components can degrade between annual tests without breaching pass thresholds. Given the Karoq's age, examine the underbody for early corrosion and confirm the coil springs and calipers operate freely. Check tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, as consumable wear is not always captured by a pass result. Verify service history independently, since the MOT record confirms legal roadworthiness only and reveals nothing of fluid changes or timing belt intervals that protect the engine long term.
