2021 Skoda Octavia SE TSI E-TEC S-A 1.0L Hybrid electric · NX71 XCG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass during the most recent inspection in December 2025 at 168,764 miles. Following a failure two years prior, the car has maintained a record of no recorded defects or advisories across the last three annual tests. This suggests that the current owner is proactive in addressing immediate safety requirements despite the heavy demand placed on the machinery. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally high for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 33,750 miles per year. Between December 2022 and December 2024, the car covered 90,528 miles, indicating consistent long-distance use or likely fleet operation. The jump of 45,973 miles between the December 2024 and 2025 tests confirms this rapid usage. Such mileage typically correlates with accelerated wear on drivetrain-related components, suspension bushings, and brake hardware that exceed standard service intervals. A buyer must focus their physical inspection on the suspension geometry and braking system to account for this high-mile profile. The failure in December 2023 due to mismatched tyre aspect ratios on the rear axle highlights a previous lapse in basic maintenance standards which can cause uneven tyre wear and alignment issues. Given the distance covered, a thorough check of the condition of brake discs, the thickness of pads, and the integrity of rubber suspension mounts is essential to ensure components have not prematurely reached the end of their functional life.
