2014 Skoda Citigo 1.0L Petrol · OY14 UPH

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass record across the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 29 July 2025 at 164,145 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This consistent performance suggests that the previous owners have maintained the mechanical and safety-critical components to a standard that avoids immediate failures during the annual DVSA inspection process. The mileage profile indicates high usage for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 13,700 miles per annum. Between July 2021 at 138,686 miles and July 2025 at 164,145 miles, the car covered 25,459 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular motorway use rather than short city trips or long periods of stagnation. While regular use often prevents issues like seized calipers, the high mileage places significant cumulative stress on the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and braking system. Given the lack of recorded advisories, a buyer should focus on the components most susceptible to high-mileage wear. A physical inspection must evaluate the suspension bushes for signs of cracking and check the coil springs for corrosion or fatigue. Because the MOT does not measure the thickness of brake pads or the condition of discs unless they fail a test, a manual check is necessary. Furthermore, the underbody should be inspected for structural rust on the sills and floor to ensure the high mileage has not led to accelerated environmental degradation of the chassis.
