2019 Skoda Karoq 1.0L Petrol · SF19 TTD

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a shift toward reactive rather than proactive mechanical care. While the most recent test in July 2025 at 77,356 miles passed with only a minor windscreen advisory, the preceding years show a clear trend of deferred component replacement. The mechanical condition appears stable in terms of passing, but the record suggests the owner frequently ignores wear items until they reach the threshold of failure or legal limits. The mileage accumulation is consistent, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per annum which aligns with typical usage for a seven-year-old SUV. The vehicle covered 12,000 miles between the 2022 and 2023 tests, followed by a higher interval of 17,504 miles the following year and another 14,638 miles prior to the 2025 inspection. This regular use suggests the car has not sat for long periods, though the steady mileage explains the wear observed on the braking system and rubber components. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the braking system and front assembly. The July 2024 test flagged pitting and scoring on both front brake discs alongside thin pads, while the 2023 record noted thinning rear pads and worn discs. This pattern suggests the brakes are being serviced only when necessary, which can lead to caliper sticking or uneven wear. Additionally, the recurring advisories for tyre wear and perishing in 2023 and 2024 indicate potential suspension alignment issues or a lack of routine pressure checks that should be verified against the current tread depths.
