2012 Skoda Yeti 2.0L Diesel · MF62 AEV

The vehicle is currently in a stable roadworthy condition based on the most recent MOT pass on 26 September 2025. The absence of any defects or advisories at 159,198 miles suggests the car is being maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements. There is a consistent pattern of passing tests without lingering mechanical issues, indicating a stable maintenance trend. The mileage is typical for a 2012 model, averaging roughly 11,371 miles per year. The distance covered between the September 2023 test at 138,298 miles and the September 2025 test at 159,198 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 10,450 miles per annum. There are no erratic jumps or prolonged periods of inactivity that would suggest hidden deterioration or misuse. The MOT history is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age and mileage. It is rare for a fourteen year old car to record no advisories across multiple tests, particularly regarding suspension bushes, brake disc wear, or structural corrosion. The failures on 5 September 2023 and 27 August 2024 were resolved immediately on the same day, which points to a proactive approach to basic upkeep. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the chassis and underbody for surface rust, as MOT testers often overlook minor corrosion that does not yet compromise structural integrity. Given the high mileage, checking the condition of the clutch and the smoothness of the gearbox is advisable. While the record shows no faults, components like the coil springs and engine mounts typically show fatigue at 159,000 miles regardless of the test outcome.
