2018 Skoda Octavia 1.5L Petrol · SM18 RWV

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 10 June 2026 at 41,994 miles resulted in zero defects, indicating that the car currently meets all safety and emissions standards. This follows three consecutive years of clean passes, suggesting that the mechanical components are being maintained effectively without recurring failures or deteriorating conditions. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,250 miles per year. Data shows consistent usage over the years, moving from 18,794 miles in June 2022 to 41,994 miles in June 2026. This low-frequency usage typically results in less wear on the drivetrain, gearbox, and suspension bushings, though the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components or brake corrosion if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods. The only recorded fault in the provided history occurred in June 2022 at 18,794 miles, where the tester flagged the front brake discs as pitted or scored. The fact that this issue did not reappear in subsequent tests at 25,734, 36,880, and 41,994 miles indicates the previous owner performed the necessary component replacement. A buyer should still verify the physical condition of the current brake discs and pads to ensure no new rust has developed, as low mileage cars can suffer from surface oxidation on the rotors.
