2014 Skoda Citigo 1.0L Petrol · YA14 TOV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing an improving maintenance trend following intermittent failures. The most recent test in November 2025 at 74,181 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that any previous mechanical or safety issues have been successfully rectified. While the history shows instances of failure, the ability to achieve clean passes in the two most recent inspections suggests the current owner is proactive in maintaining the car to meet DVSA standards. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a twelve-year-old city car, averaging approximately 6,200 miles per year. Between November 2023 at 60,919 miles and November 2024 at 67,682 miles, the vehicle covered 6,763 miles, showing a steady rate of use. The subsequent 6,499 miles recorded before the 2025 test maintains this trend. This low annual mileage generally reduces wear on drivetrain components but can occasionally lead to dry seals in rubber components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific areas that caused the failures in 2023 and 2024, although the records provided do not list the exact reasons for those failures. Given the age of the Citigo, a thorough check of the suspension bushes and coil springs is advisable as these are common points of wear on this platform. The buyer should also inspect for any binding calipers or excessive corrosion on the brake discs to ensure the structural integrity of the chassis remains sound despite the low mileage.
