2014 Skoda Yeti 2.0L Diesel · OV64 TWK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the MOT record indicates a concerning maintenance trend that has been largely improving rather than worsening. The most recent test on 2025-07-08 was passed at 91,143 miles, marking a significant improvement from the previous failed test on 2025-07-07 which occurred at 91,141 miles. This suggests that while the vehicle has experienced mechanical wear, the issue has been resolved or mitigated. The lack of a significant gap between the two most recent failed tests implies that the problems have been addressed, though the underlying structural integrity remains a subject of concern. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle is approximately 12 years old with a total mileage of 91,143 miles, which aligns with typical usage for a 2014 model. The data is relatively clean, with no rapid mileage accumulation or significant gaps between the two most recent MOTs. The vehicle has maintained a consistent mileage trajectory over the past six months, indicating that the accumulated wear has been managed effectively. The lack of sudden acceleration in mileage suggests that the vehicle has not been driven excessively, which is a positive indicator for a first-time buyer. A buyer should inspect the vehicle in person to verify the suspension and braking systems, which have been flagged as problematic in the MOT record. The persistent mention of worn tyres and suspension bushings across multiple failed tests suggests that basic upkeep may have been skipped, leading to structural risks. The binding calipers and excessive wear on the rear service brake calliper lever indicate that the braking system is in a state of concern, even if the ABS warning lamp is currently off. The lack of corrosion on the exhaust components and the absence of structural issues in the engine bay suggest that the vehicle has not suffered catastrophic damage, but the recurring faults in the suspension and brakes warrant a thorough physical inspection by a qualified professional.
