2012 Skoda Citigo 1.0L Petrol · MF62 ADX

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on August 26, 2025 at 137,992 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory as the car transitioned from recurring failures in previous years to consecutive clean passes. This clean sheet in the two most recent tests indicates that the previous owner became proactive in addressing necessary mechanical repairs to bring the vehicle back up to legal standard. At 137,992 miles, this 2012 Citigo has averaged approximately 9,857 miles per year, which aligns closely with national averages for a vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with 14,096 miles covered between August 2023 and August 2024, and another 7,174 miles covered between 2024 and 2025. This regular interval suggests the vehicle has not sat for long periods, which is generally beneficial for maintaining engine seals and brake components. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific areas that caused the failures in August 2023 and 2024, although the records do not specify the exact mechanical nature of those faults. Given the high mileage, a thorough examination of the suspension bushes, control arms, and coil springs is essential, as these are common points of wear on this platform. The buyer should also check for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, as the age of the vehicle increases the risk of surface rust regardless of the recent MOT passes.
