2013 Skoda Octavia 2.0L Diesel · MT63 AEV

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-10-28 at 105,147 miles recording no defects. All prior tests from 2021 to 2024 also showed passing results with no recorded issues, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical concerns. The absence of advisories or failures across this five-year span suggests the car has been well-maintained, with no signs of deterioration in critical systems such as brakes, suspension, or emissions. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,088 miles annually. The recorded distances between MOT tests show gradual accumulation, with intervals of 4,770 to 15,280 miles, reflecting regular but not excessive usage. Notably, the 2021-10-13 test at 61,733 miles to the 2022-10-26 test at 66,503 miles covers a 4,770-mile increase over 12 months, consistent with average annual driving. No anomalies in mileage spikes or extended gaps suggest the vehicle has not been subjected to prolonged inactivity or heavy wear. While the MOT history lacks specific fault records, a buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, particularly given the car’s age, as wear in bushes or coil springs may not trigger immediate failures. Inspect brake discs and calipers for uneven wear, and check for corrosion in underbody areas, which can develop over time. The absence of recorded issues is positive, but a physical inspection remains essential to confirm the vehicle’s structural integrity and identify any hidden deterioration not captured in the MOT data.
