2014 Skoda Citigo 1.0L Petrol · LD14 ACF

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent MOT test in November 2025 at 59,055 miles passed only after a failure the previous day for a defective windscreen wiper and poor tyre condition. While the immediate faults were rectified, the recurring nature of minor consumable-related failures suggests the owner only addresses issues when they threaten an MOT certificate rather than performing scheduled preventative maintenance. At 59,055 miles over 12 years, the Citigo shows significantly low mileage, averaging approximately 4,900 miles per year. This low usage is consistent across the records, with a gap of only 2,143 miles between November 2024 and November 2025. However, the low mileage often correlates with age-related degradation of rubber components, evidenced by the cracking and perishing of the offside rear tyre noted in 2025. This condition indicates that the rubber dries out while the vehicle sits for long periods despite having low tread wear. A buyer should focus inspection on the braking system, as the record shows the front brake discs were seriously weakened in November 2024 at 55,912 miles. This followed an earlier warning of worn discs in 2021, indicating a trend of letting brake components thin until they fail. Additionally, the recurring failures for uneven wear on the nearside rear tyre, appearing in both 2022 and 2025, suggest a persistent alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that require a professional check to prevent premature tyre replacement.
