2021 Skoda Octavia SE Tech TSI IV S-A 1.4L Hybrid electric · WH21 BHA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on January 29 2026 at 93,944 miles with zero recorded defects. This follows a period of clean passes throughout the previous year, suggesting a consistent level of basic maintenance. The absence of advisories in the last three tests indicates that the mechanical and structural components inspected are operating within acceptable DVSA parameters without immediate remedial requirements. The mileage data reveals high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 18,800 miles per annum over its five-year life. A significant surge in usage occurred between July 2025 at 67,972 miles and January 2026 at 93,944 miles, representing over 26,000 miles covered in just six months. This rapid accumulation suggests frequent long-distance motorway driving, which typically places less strain on the clutch and suspension components compared to short-trip city driving. The only noted mechanical issue occurred during the June 2024 test at 51,980 miles, where the tester flagged front and nearside rear tyres as worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear. This specific pattern of uneven wear often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. While these issues were resolved prior to subsequent tests, a buyer should inspect the current tyre set for uniform wear and check the front bushings and shock absorbers to ensure the high mileage has not caused premature degradation of the steering geometry.
