2021 Skoda Kamiq SE TSI S-A 1.0L Petrol · WH21 GVR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a clear decline regarding consumable components. While it passed its most recent test on 1 June 2026 at 28,553 miles, the tester identified multiple advisories that were not present in previous years. The appearance of thin offside front brake pads and perishing tyre rubber across all four corners indicates that preventative maintenance is being deferred in favour of reacting only when the MOT inspection period. The mileage profile is low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,711 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage with 4,254 miles covered between July 2024 and July 2025, and another 2,055 miles in the year leading to the June 2026 test. This low mileage often contributes to the degradation of rubber-based components, such as tyres and seals, which can suffer from time and exposure to the elements rather than mechanical wear from distance. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the tyre set, as the 2026 record flags cracking and perishing on all four tyres, which is a common symptom of age-related dry rot in low-mileage cars. The braking system requires immediate attention; the 2025 test noted pitted and scored rear discs, followed by the 2026 report of thin front pads. You should verify if the discs and pads have been replaced recently to avoid binding caliper issues or uneven braking performance, as the history suggests these components are reaching the end of their service intervals.
