2022 Skoda Karoq 2.0L Petrol · LC22 AFJ

This Skoda Karoq presents a clean bill of health on paper. The most recent MOT, conducted on 2026-06-10 at 27,691 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. A year prior, the 2025-07-01 test at 23,073 miles also returned a completely clean sheet. With no advisories or failures logged across the two available tests, the maintenance trend appears stable and suggests the vehicle has been kept in sound mechanical order during its early years. The mileage profile aligns well with a typical usage pattern for a four-year-old vehicle. Covering roughly 4,618 miles between the July 2025 and June 2026 tests, the annualised rate sits comfortably around 6,900 miles per year. There are no alarming gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer record that would raise concerns about long periods of neglect or excessive short-trip use. The data set is admittedly sparse, limited to just two inspections, but both entries paint a consistent picture of low-mileage, trouble-free motoring. Despite the clean MOT record, a prospective buyer should still carry out a thorough physical inspection. At nearly four years old, the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers may have begun to show early signs of wear, particularly if the car has spent most of its life on urban roads. The braking system warrants close attention too; check the condition of the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or binding calipers, even though no faults were flagged at the last test. Tyre condition and tread depth should be verified, as consumable wear can accelerate depending on driving style and road surfaces. Structurally, inspect the underbody and wheel arches for any signs of corrosion, especially around suspension mounting points and subframes. The exhaust system and catalytic converter should be examined for leaks or deterioration that could affect future emissions compliance. While the MOT history offers strong reassurance, a pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic remains the surest way to confirm the car's long-term integrity before committing to ownership.
