2020 Skoda Superb SE L TDI 2.0L Diesel · VO70 VVB

The 2020 Skoda Superb SE L TDI presents a stable and reassuring maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass at 86,510 miles during the September 2025 test. No defects were recorded across the entire MOT history, suggesting the previous owner addressed wear items proactively before they escalated into failures. An anomaly exists in the record where a test on 15 September 2025 resulted in a failure with zero recorded defects, followed by an immediate pass the next day. This typically indicates an administrative error, an aborted test, or a minor issue rectified instantly rather than a recurring mechanical fault. The mileage accumulation sits at roughly 14,418 miles per year, which is notably high for a six-year-old vehicle. Between the September 2023 test at 55,245 miles and the September 2024 test at 71,435 miles, the car covered 16,190 miles, followed by another 15,075 miles over the subsequent twelve months. This consistent, high-mileage usage pattern implies sustained motorway driving, which generally benefits engine and drivetrain longevity but accelerates the wear of consumables and suspension components. Despite the flawless MOT record, a prospective buyer must inspect the physical condition of high-wear components typical of a high-mileage diesel. Focus on the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or deterioration, given the 86,510 miles on the chassis. Check the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or lipping, and measure the tyre tread depth closely, as high annual mileage often leads to frequent replacements or uneven wear patterns. A thorough underbody inspection is also prudent to assess structural integrity and corrosion, particularly around the exhaust system and subframes, ensuring the rapid mileage accumulation has not masked underlying deterioration.
