2011 Skoda Yeti 2.0L Diesel · WF11 LUW

The Skoda Yeti presents a generally stable mechanical condition, though the most recent MOT test on 2025-12-08 at 108,661 miles reveals emerging wear that requires attention. The tester flagged an Offside Front tyre worn close to the legal limit and on the edge, alongside an Offside Rear brake disc that is worn, pitted, or scored. Passing the test despite these defects indicates the issues were borderline advisories rather than immediate failures, yet they point to a maintenance pattern where consumable components are run to their absolute limits before replacement. The recurring nature of tyre wear across multiple tests suggests the previous owner deferred routine upkeep. Covering 108,661 miles over approximately 15 years equates to an average annual mileage of roughly 7,244 miles, which is typical for this age of vehicle. The MOT records show consistent yearly testing from 2022 onwards, with no significant gaps in the testing schedule. The mileage accumulation between tests appears steady; the vehicle covered 8,404 miles between December 2022 and December 2023, and 7,308 miles between December 2024 and December 2025. This regular, low-mileage usage implies lighter use rather than long periods standing, though the pronounced tyre wear suggests alignment or suspension geometry issues may be accelerating consumable degradation. A prospective buyer must inspect the condition of the brake discs and suspension components closely. The pitting and scoring noted on the Offside Rear brake disc in December 2025 can lead to brake judder or reduced braking efficiency if left unaddressed. Repeated advisories for edge wear on multiple tyres, specifically the Nearside Front, Offside Rear, and Nearside Rear in December 2023, strongly indicate worn suspension bushes or misaligned tracking. Tyre edge wear rarely stems from simple under-inflation; it typically points to defective shock absorbers or worn suspension linkages. Checking the structural integrity of the undercarriage for corrosion is also prudent, given the vehicle's age, though the MOT records do not highlight any immediate structural risks.
