2016 Skoda Superb 2.0L Diesel · OY16 XGP

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent inspection data. The latest MOT test conducted on 14 July 2025 at 120,808 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that any previous mechanical issues were addressed. While the history shows instances of failure in prior years, the clean result of the last two consecutive tests suggests the vehicle is currently being maintained to a standard that meets minimum safety requirements. The mileage pattern reflects consistent high-frequency use over the car's ten-year life, averaging approximately 12,000 miles per annum. This accumulation is slightly above the national average for a passenger car, suggesting accelerated wear on drivetrain components and suspension bushings. Between the July 2023 and June 2024 tests, the car covered 10,257 miles, followed by a more intensive period of 13,044 miles between the June 2024 and July 2025 tests. This regularity indicates the vehicle has been used regularly for long-distance commuting rather than sitting for extended periods of inactivity. A buyer should note the recurring failures in July 2023 and June 2024, although the specific mechanical reasons were not detailed in the summary. Given the high mileage of 120,808 miles, a physical inspection must focus on the integrity of the front control arms and coil springs, which often perish on this model under load. The braking system should also be checked for thinning discs and seized calipers, as the high mileage puts significant stress on these consumables despite the recent clean MOT results.
