2016 Skoda Citigo 1.0L Petrol · ML16 AAZ

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-03-24 at 78,239 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. Previous tests from 2025-03-27 (67,474 miles) and 2024-03-22 (57,134 miles) also passed, though a failed test on 2025-03-24 at 67,471 miles—just three days prior—remains unexplained, as no defects were logged. This inconsistency suggests potential administrative error or oversight, but the absence of recorded issues in the latest test implies no critical mechanical failures. The vehicle’s maintenance pattern shows regular annual testing, with no significant defects reported in the last three years. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 10-year-old vehicle, averaging 7,824 miles annually. The gap between 2023-03-17 (44,950 miles) and 2024-03-22 (57,134 miles) reflects a 12,184-mile increase, while the 2025-03-27 test at 67,474 miles shows a 10,340-mile rise. These figures suggest consistent operation without prolonged inactivity, though the 2025-03-24 failed test at 67,471 miles—just 3 miles prior—raises questions about testing accuracy. The MOT history lacks recurring defects, indicating no systemic issues with brakes, suspension, or emissions. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, which can degrade over time without immediate warning. The absence of brake-related defects in recent tests is reassuring, but visual inspection of brake discs and calipers is recommended. Structural corrosion, though not flagged, should be checked, especially in areas prone to road salt. The vehicle’s maintenance record shows no major faults, but the unexplained failed test warrants scrutiny to confirm its validity. Overall, the car appears well-maintained, with no urgent mechanical concerns.
