2024 Skoda Scala 1.0L Petrol · NU74 CFZ

The 2024 Skoda Scala presents a clean bill of health at its most recent MOT on 16 March 2026, recording 19,083 miles with zero defects. The maintenance trend is clearly improving. The previous test on 16 September 2025 at 12,768 miles flagged two minor advisories, both of which appear to have been addressed before the March 2026 pass. No recurring faults or serious mechanical risks are visible in the record. The mileage accumulation is consistent and unremarkable. Between September 2025 and March 2026, the car covered 6,315 miles in six months, which aligns with the overall annualised average of roughly 9,542 miles. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer readings. The vehicle has been used regularly rather than sitting idle for extended periods, which is generally favourable for preventing long-term issues like brake seizure or fuel system degradation. The September 2025 advisories were limited to a nearside front tyre worn close to the legal limit and front brake pads wearing thin. Both are consumable items and the clean March 2026 result indicates they were replaced in good time. No suspension, steering, exhaust, or structural corrosion defects have been flagged across either test. The brake discs and rear braking system have not drawn any attention from the tester, suggesting even wear across the axle. A buyer should still carry out a physical inspection of the front brake pads and discs to confirm the replacements are holding up, and check the nearside front tyre for any uneven wear patterns that could point to tracking or suspension bush issues not yet severe enough to trigger a defect. The underbody and inner wheel arches should be inspected for stone chip damage or early corrosion, as the car is only two years old and any structural rust would be unusual and worth investigating. Overall, the MOT record suggests attentive ownership with no underlying mechanical concerns.
