2021 Skoda Octavia VRS TDI S-A 2.0L Diesel · WR21 OVM

The vehicle passed its last MOT on 25 April 2024 at 68,556 miles, but this certificate is now significantly outdated, being over 28 months old at the current date of 16 June 2026. The recorded history consists of a single test entry, which prevents any meaningful assessment of a maintenance trend as stable, worsening, or improving. That single test did, however, flag several items requiring attention: a damaged central rear seat belt buckle, a windscreen with damage not yet impairing the driver's view, and a nearside rear tyre exhibiting both slight damage/cracking and tread worn close to the legal limit with edge wear. The recorded mileage of 68,556 miles for a 2021-registered vehicle equates to an average annual usage of approximately 13,711 miles, which is considered high for its age. The sole MOT entry from April 2024 provides no insight into mileage accumulation between previous tests, but the high overall figure suggests accelerated wear on consumable items such as tyres, brake components, and suspension bushes, as well as increased stress on the drivetrain and exhaust system. The absence of any MOT tests in the subsequent two years means the vehicle's current mechanical and structural condition is entirely unknown and cannot be verified against any official inspection. A buyer must conduct a thorough in-person inspection focusing on the specific components previously advisory and on wear items typical of a high-mileage diesel. Priority one is the central rear seat belt buckle for integrity and safe operation. The windscreen damage must be assessed for progression and any risk of spreading. Both rear tyres, particularly the nearside, require immediate evaluation for tread depth, perishing, and sidewall damage; the offside rear tyre was not mentioned but should be checked equally. Given the mileage and lack of recent testing, a comprehensive check of the entire braking system for disc condition and caliper binding, all suspension joints and bushes, the exhaust for leaks and corrosion, and the underbody for structural rust is essential. The engine and gearbox should also be reviewed for any signs of excessive wear or leaks.
