2021 Skoda Superb 1.5L Petrol · SL71 UAY

The most recent MOT, carried out on 16 December 2025, was a clean pass at 28 637 mi with no defects recorded. The previous test, on 5 December 2024, also passed without any recorded issues at 18 237 mi. Across the two‑year span the car accumulated roughly 10 400 mi, which is higher than the average of about 5 700 mi per year for its age but still well below the mileage you would expect for a five‑year‑old vehicle. Both MOTs are completely free of advisories or failures, indicating that the vehicle has not shown any emerging safety‑related problems in the official inspections. With no recorded defects in either test, the condition trend appears stable rather than worsening; there is no evidence of a growing mechanical issue. The overall mileage of 28 637 mi for a 2021 model is low, suggesting that the car has either been lightly used or has spent periods of inactivity. The relatively high increase between the two MOTs points to a year of more intensive use, which may have accelerated wear on consumables such as brake pads, tyres, and suspension bushings. Because low‑mileage cars can also hide periods of storage, it is worth being alert to any signs of corrosion, battery deterioration, or dried‑out seals. For a buyer, the first checks should be: Visual inspection of the brakes and tyre tread for wear, especially given the recent mileage surge. Examination of the suspension components for any creaking or uneven ride, which can reveal hidden wear after a period of heavier use.
