2021 Skoda Kodiaq 1.5L Petrol · LS71 MJF

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a slight decline in consumable upkeep. The most recent test conducted on August 6 2025 at 43,151 miles resulted in a pass but highlighted an advisory for a nearside front tyre worn near the legal limit and showing edge wear. This indicates that while the vehicle is mechanically sound for road use, the owner neglected routine tyre management or alignment in the final interval. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical UK usage for an SUV, averaging approximately 8,600 miles per year. Between the August 2024 test at 32,344 miles and the August 2025 test at 43,151 miles, the vehicle covered 10,807 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of stagnation, which is generally beneficial for maintaining the integrity of seals, rubber components, and the braking system. A buyer should prioritise an inspection of the front suspension geometry due to the edge wear noted in 2025. This pattern often points to incorrect tracking alignment, worn suspension bushes, or failing ball joints. Since no structural or mechanical defects were recorded in the 2024 test, the core drivetrain appears well-maintained, but the physical condition of the brake pads and discs should be verified to ensure the higher mileage has not caused uneven wear.
