2013 Skoda Superb 1.6L Diesel · ST13 XGO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes over the last four years. The most recent test conducted on 26 June 2025 at 140,533 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a failure just one day prior at 140,529 miles. This specific failure likely represents an administrative error or a minor non-presentation that was rectified immediately, as no technical defects were listed on the failed report. The lack of advisories across multiple tests suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids deferred mechanical repairs. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,810 miles per annum. Data shows a steady progression from 95,676 miles in July 2022 to 108,237 miles in July 2023, followed by a jump of 18,798 miles by the July 2024 test. This slight increase in usage during the 2023-2024 period does not disrupt the overall pattern of regular use, which helps prevent the seal failures and component degradation associated with long periods of stationary storage. Because the MOT record shows no recurring mechanical faults or structural corrosion, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-mileage wear items that fall between test intervals. Inspect the condition of the suspension arm bushes and coil springs, as these often show fatigue at 140,000 miles. The buyer should also check for signs of oil leaks around the engine and evaluate the thickness of the brake discs, as the record does not explicitly flag binding calipers or thinning. The clean history suggests a proactive owner, but the high mileage remains the primary factor determining the remaining service life of the drivetrain and turbo components.
