Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and budget for upco
When viewing this specific Yeti, your primary focus should be the suspension. The nearside front shock absorber has been flagged for oil misting since 2022 (at 43,037 miles) and remains an advisory at the most recent test in 2025 (71,555 miles). You should ask the seller if this component has been replaced or if it is still the original unit, as 'light misting' can eventually lead to a complete failure.
Additionally, check the current condition of all four tyres. The MOT history shows a recurring trend of tyres being flagged for cracking, perishing, or being worn close to the legal limit. Ensure that any recent tyre replacements are documented and that there is no evidence of uneven wear, which could indicate alignment issues related to the previously noted shock absorber advisory.
As a 1.2L petrol model, this Yeti is designed for relatively efficient urban and suburban driving. You can expect moderate fuel economy typical of a small-capacity petrol engine in a compact SUV body.
Maintenance costs should be considered alongside the potential need for suspension repairs. While the 1.2L engine is generally straightforward, the recurring tyre and shock absorber advisories suggest that consumables and suspension components may be a regular part of your budget. The insurance group for this engine size is typically mid-range, and tax bands for 2016 petrol models are generally manageable.
Specifically inspect the nearside front shock absorber for any signs of significant leaking or movement. Because this has been an advisory for nearly four years (from 43,037 to 71,555 miles), it is important to see if the 'light misting' has progressed to a more serious leak.
Check the sidewalls of all tyres for the 'cracking or perishing' mentioned in the 2023 and 2024 MOT records. Finally, given the history of tyre wear advisories in 2022, inspect the tread depth and look for uneven wear patterns on the front axle, which could be linked to the ongoing shock absorber issue.
This 2016 blue Skoda Yeti has covered 71,555 miles, which is above the model average of 6,673 miles per year. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of advisories, most notably a persistent light oil misting on the nearside front shock absorber recorded in four consecutive tests since 2022. While the vehicle has passed every test, the repeated nature of these advisories suggests a component that is gradually deteriorating.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 83.2% MOT pass rate, with shock absorbers and tyres being among the most common reasons for issues.
