2021 Skoda Karoq SE Drive TSI S-A 1.5L Petrol · PX71 OXD

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition with a stable maintenance trend across its history. The most recent inspection conducted on 11 December 2025 at 29,271 miles resulted in a pass, although it introduced new advisories regarding tyre condition. This follows a clean record from December 2024, indicating that the primary mechanical and structural components met standards during that period. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,854 miles per annum. Between the December 2024 test at 21,061 miles and the December 2025 test, the car covered 8,210 miles. This low usage suggests the vehicle has likely seen light use or has sat stationary for extended periods, which often leads to specific degradation issues in rubber components rather than mechanical wear from friction. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the nearside and offside rear tyres. The 2025 test flagged both for slight cracking or perishing, a common symptom of low-mileage vehicles where the rubber loses elasticity despite sufficient tread depth. These tyres should be checked for deeper sidewall cracking to ensure they have not reached the end of their structural life due to age. Given the low mileage, the buyer should also verify the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as vehicles driven infrequently often develop rust on the braking rotors. While the MOT record shows no structural failures or suspension defects, the transition from a clean report to tyre perishing suggests that age-related material degradation is currently the primary area of concern for this Skoda.
