Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and budget for imme
When inspecting this Skoda Rapid, focus heavily on the braking system and tyres. The MOT records show a recurring issue with brake discs being 'worn, pitted or scored' in 2023, 2024, and 2025. You should check if the discs and pads have been replaced recently or if they are nearing the end of their service life again.
Negotiate based on the recent history of tyre wear; the 2024 test recorded four separate tyres worn close to the legal limit. Ask for evidence of recent tyre replacements and check the tread depth across all four wheels. Additionally, verify that the suspension bushes mentioned in the September 2024 failure have been properly addressed, as worn bushes can affect steering precision and tyre longevity.
The 1197cc petrol engine is generally positioned in a lower insurance group and tax band, making it relatively economical for urban driving. Fuel economy for this model variant is typically modest, suitable for daily commuting.
Maintenance costs should be factored in with an eye on consumables. Given the repeated MOT advisories for brake discs and tyres, you should expect regular spending on these items. An estimated annual running cost for this vehicle is approximately £1,100-£1,400, depending on your annual mileage and insurance profile.
Specifically inspect the braking components. The MOT history shows that rear brake discs were flagged as pitted or scored in 2023, 2024, and 2025. Check for any vibration when braking or unusual noises that might indicate the discs or calipers are failing.
Secondly, examine the front suspension. The 2024 failure specifically cited 'nearside and offside front suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn'. Ensure these parts have been replaced and check for any knocks or knocks when driving over uneven surfaces. Finally, check the condition of the headlamp lenses, as previous tests noted a 'product on the lens' which can affect visibility.
This 2014 black Skoda Rapid features a 1.2L petrol engine and has covered 101,494 miles as of September 2025. The MOT history reveals frequent advisories and failures related to tyres, brake discs, and suspension components. While it has passed its tests, the frequency of wear-and-tear defects suggests a need for thorough mechanical scrutiny.
No aggregate reliability data is available for the Skoda Rapid to provide a specific model-wide comparison.
