2016 Skoda Rapid 1.4L Petrol · OU66 MWX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistently clean record recently. The most recent inspection conducted on 26 September 2025 at 52,759 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, indicating that the car currently meets all statutory requirements. While a failure was recorded on 24 August 2023 at 45,490 miles, the immediate pass the following day suggests that the identified issue was rectified promptly without indicating a recurring mechanical trend. The mileage pattern is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,276 miles per year. Data shows consistent usage between annual tests, moving from 40,118 miles in September 2022 to 50,092 miles in September 2024, and reaching 52,759 miles by late 2025. This low annual mileage generally suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or brake corrosion due to inactivity. Given the lack of advisories in the history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by age rather than just use. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as low-mileage cars can suffer from perished rubber over time. Check the brake discs for surface pitting or rust which often occurs if the vehicle sits for extended periods, and verify the structural integrity of the chassis to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed despite the clean MOT history.
