2014 Skoda Octavia Elegance TDI CR 2.0L Diesel · VV54 ANN

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 19 April 2025 at 102,758 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This pattern of clean passes extends across the last three inspections, suggesting that the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that prevents immediate mechanical or safety failures. At a recorded mileage of 102,758 miles over twelve years, the Octavia averages approximately 8,563 miles per annum. This low usage profile aligns closely with typical national averages for a diesel estate and avoids the excessive wear associated with high-mileage commuter use. The data shows consistent use between tests, with 7,856 miles covered between the December 2022 and March 2024 tests, and another 7,710 miles between March 2024 and April 2025. This regularity suggests the car has been used regularly rather than suffering from long periods of stand-related neglect. While the MOT record shows no advisories or failures, a physical inspection should focus on components subject to age-related degradation and wear. Given the mileage and age, the buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as these often perish before they trigger an MOT failure. The brake discs should also be checked for surface corrosion or thinning, and the chassis should be inspected for any emerging structural rust that may not yet reached the threshold of a formal test inspection.
