2020 Skoda Kodiaq SE Drive TSI S-A 1.5L Petrol · LS20 HTX

This 2020 Skoda Kodiaq presents a clean and stable maintenance trend through its most recent MOT on 15 June 2026 at 40,482 miles, where the tester recorded zero defects. The record shows no recurring structural or mechanical failures. The only defect noted across the entire history was a minor advisory for front brake pads wearing thin in June 2024, which was evidently addressed before the next test. There are no patterns of worsening faults, corrosion, or emissions failures, indicating consistent upkeep. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical. Between June 2023 and June 2025, the car added roughly 10,000 miles per year, which aligns with normal use for a family SUV. The slight increase in annual mileage from around 6,000 miles in the earlier years to approximately 10,000 miles more recently suggests the vehicle has been used more regularly of late, rather than sitting idle. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden jumps in the odometer readings that would raise concerns about tampered mileage or long periods of neglect. From a mechanical standpoint, the history is largely unremarkable in the best sense. The 2024 advisory regarding front brake pads wearing thin points to normal consumable wear, and the clean result in 2025 confirms the issue was resolved. No suspension components, steering linkages, or structural mounting points have ever been flagged for corrosion or deterioration. The exhaust and emissions systems have consistently met required standards without advisories. A buyer should still carry out a thorough in-person inspection, focusing on the condition of the front brake discs and pads given the earlier advisory, as well as checking for uneven tyre wear that could indicate alignment or suspension issues not captured in the MOT. Inspect the underside for any fresh stone chips, surface corrosion, or fluid seepage around the engine and gearbox. Test the clutch and gearbox operation during a road test, paying attention to any hesitation or harsh engagement. Overall, the documented record supports a well-maintained vehicle with no evidence of recurring mechanical or structural defects.
