2022 Skoda Superb L AND K IV Phev S-A 1.4L Hybrid electric (clean) · PK22 WEP

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 6 March 2026 with no defects recorded. The history shows a consistent pattern of clean passes, with the previous test on 11 March 2025 also returning no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend and suggests the vehicle has been kept in a condition that meets or exceeds the minimum legal safety standards without the emergence of common wear and tear issues. With a recorded mileage of 35,500 miles over approximately four years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 8,875 miles per annum. This represents a typical usage profile for a premium executive saloon, suggesting a balanced mix of urban and motorway driving. Mechanically, this level of usage avoids the risks associated with excessive standing, such as perished seals or binding calipers, while remaining low enough to avoid premature wear on major drivetrain components or heavy suspension degradation. Since the MOT history is clean, the focus shifts to age-related and usage-based physical inspections. The buyer should examine the tyre treads and sidewalls for uneven wear or perishing, as tyres can degrade over time even if the tread remains legal. Particular attention should be paid to the brake discs for surface corrosion and the calipers for any signs of binding, which can occur even in well-maintained vehicles. Given the plug-in hybrid nature of the powertrain, it is essential to verify the health of both the high-voltage battery and the 12V auxiliary battery, as the latter is prone to failure if the vehicle has experienced periods of inactivity. Furthermore, the buyer must verify the service history against the manufacturer's recommended intervals. While the MOTs are clean, they do not confirm oil changes or filter replacements. Check for evidence of calendar-based fluid degradation, specifically the brake fluid and coolant, which should be replaced according to the schedule regardless of mileage. During the test drive, listen for any unusual knocks from the suspension bushes or coil springs and ensure the transition between electric and combustion power is seamless, without excessive shudder or hesitation, to confirm the long-term health of the hybrid drivetrain.
