2018 Skoda Kodiaq 2.0L Petrol · LC18 ABO

The 2018 Skoda Kodiaq demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with all five MOT tests from 2021 to 2025 recording no defects. The most recent April 2025 test at 34,705 miles confirmed compliance, reflecting consistent maintenance. No recurring issues or advisories appear in the history, indicating the vehicle has been well-maintained over its eight-year lifespan. The absence of critical failures suggests the previous owner prioritized regular servicing, though the low mileage of 34,705 miles for its age warrants scrutiny. The vehicle’s mileage progression shows gradual accumulation, with annual increases of approximately 5,000 miles. From 13,697 miles in 2021 to 34,705 in 2025, the pattern suggests periodic use rather than continuous operation. However, the extended gap between 2021 and 2022 tests—13,697 to 19,766 miles—may indicate periods of inactivity, which could affect components like suspension bushes or brake discs. The lack of corrosion reports or structural issues in the MOT records is reassuring, but low-mileage vehicles often require closer inspection for hidden wear. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, including coil springs and bushings, which may degrade during prolonged inactivity. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear, as low-mileage use can lead to corrosion. Exhaust emissions and structural integrity remain unflagged in the history, but a pre-purchase inspection should confirm the absence of rust in critical areas. The clean MOT record supports the vehicle’s reliability, but physical examination of mechanical systems is advised to validate the documented maintenance trends.
