2023 Skoda Octavia 1.4L Petrol · WH71 NFD

The most recent MOT on 2026-02-25 resulted in a pass at 11,095 miles with no defects recorded. The previous MOT on 2026-02-19 at the same mileage recorded a fail, but again no defects were listed, so the failure cannot be tied to any specific mechanical issue from the available data. Because neither test provides defect details, it is not possible to determine whether the vehicle’s condition is worsening, stable, or improving; the trend is inconclusive based solely on the supplied MOT history. The car is about three years old but has only roughly 11,000 miles, averaging around 3,700 miles per year. This low mileage suggests light use or possibly long periods of standing. Low mileage generally means less wear on consumables, brakes, suspension and drivetrain components, yet extended stationary periods can lead to other concerns such as brake corrosion, tyre flat‑spotting or fluid degradation. The mileage signal is therefore ambiguous and should not be overstated. Given the limited and non‑specific MOT information, a buyer should verify the car’s condition in person. Important checks include a test drive to listen for abnormal noises or vibrations, inspecting the brakes for wear or corrosion, examining tyre condition and pressure, checking suspension components for play or leaks, looking under the body for rust or damage, verifying fluid levels and condition, and ensuring all lights and electronics function correctly. Reviewing any available service records would also help confirm maintenance history.
