2019 Skoda Octavia 1.5L Petrol · WU69 LPO

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent history of passing its annual inspections. The most recent test in September 2025 at 25,632 miles resulted in a pass with a minor advisory for a deteriorated rear registration plate. This follows two consecutive clean records in 2023 and 2024, indicating that the mechanical and safety components have remained within acceptable tolerance levels over the last three years of operation. The mileage pattern is notably low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,600 miles per year. The data shows a significant jump in usage between August 2023 and September 2024, where the car covered nearly 10,000 miles in a single year, whereas previous years saw intervals of less than 500 miles. While the low total mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and suspension, the long periods of inactivity between early tests can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components or corrosion on brake discs if the vehicle was not used regularly. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on signs of flat-spotting on tyres and brake corrosion given the low annual mileage. The 2022 failure at 5,195 miles regarding misaligned headlamp aims was a simple adjustment issue and does not indicate a deeper mechanical neglect. Since no structural rust or suspension bushing failures have been flagged in the records, the primary concern remains verifying that the service history matches the low-mileage profile to ensure oils and fluids have been changed according to time-based schedules despite the lack of MOT-related defects.
