2022 Skoda Karoq 1.5L Petrol · LF72 SVX

A profile of consistent roadworthiness defines this vehicle, evidenced by a clean MOT record with no recorded defects as of the latest test on 09 December 2025. The absence of any advisories or failures across the documented testing period indicates that the components subject to MOT inspection, such as braking systems, lighting, and structural integrity, have met the required standards without recorded deterioration. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 5,008 miles per year to reach the current 20,031 miles. This pattern of usage suggests the vehicle has been driven significantly less than the UK average, which typically results in less mechanical wear on high-friction components like brake discs and pads, as well as less fatigue on suspension bushes and coil springs. However, such low annual mileage can sometimes mean the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary, which warrants attention to rubber components and fluid seals. Given the lack of recorded defects, a test drive should focus on verifying that the low usage has not resulted in any secondary issues related to infrequent operation. Listen for any irregular knocks or knocks from the suspension when traversing uneven surfaces, which could indicate perished rubber bushings or dampers that have stiffened from lack of movement. Check for any hesitation in the engine response or irregular idling, and ensure the braking pedal feels firm and consistent without any pulsation or judder, which would indicate uneven disc wear or binding calipers. Pay close attention to the steering response to ensure there is no pulling to one side or excessive play in the rack, which can sometimes develop when steering components are not regularly cycled through their full range of motion. Additionally, inspect the area around the engine and gearbox for any signs of weeping or oil misting, as seals can occasionally dry out or lose their effectiveness when a vehicle is driven sparingly.
