2018 Skoda Kodiaq 2.0L Diesel · PK18 AAJ

The Skoda Kodiaq has maintained a clean MOT history with no defects or advisories across all four tests, most recently passing on 1 May 2025 at 112,300 miles. This indicates a stable roadworthiness trend over the past three years, with no recurring mechanical failures or advisory items to suggest neglect. The absence of any failings—even minor—implies that previous owners have adhered to basic maintenance, though this does not preclude hidden wear or deferred issues not captured in the MOT record. The mileage progression reveals a consistent annual average of approximately 14,000 miles, which is elevated for a vehicle of this age. The gaps between tests are regular, with roughly 12-month intervals between each MOT, suggesting the car has been in active use without prolonged periods of inactivity. The lack of advisories or defects also means there is no evidence of rushed maintenance or deferred repairs, though high mileage over eight years will have accelerated wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components. Given the clean MOT record, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of high-wear items such as the suspension geometry, particularly the rear subframe mounts and bushings, which are prone to fatigue at this mileage. The brake system—including caliper binding, disc thickness, and rear brake shoes—should be checked for uneven wear, as high mileage can lead to inconsistent stopping performance. Structural integrity, especially around wheel arches and sills, should be examined for corrosion, as prolonged exposure to UK road conditions may have contributed to hidden rust. Finally, the exhaust system and catalytic converter should be inspected for leaks or excessive corrosion, as these are common failure points in older vehicles.
