2011 Skoda Octavia 1.6L Petrol · YC11 WYA

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 4 July 2025 at 110,915 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to May 2022, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard and kept in a state of constant compliance. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a 15 year old car. Between the May 2022 test at 99,106 miles and the July 2025 test at 110,915 miles, the vehicle covered 11,809 miles over approximately three years. This low annual average suggests the car has not been subject to heavy commercial use or excessive motorway wear, though it does imply periods of lighter usage. The absence of any advisories or failures across four consecutive years is rare for a vehicle of this age. There are no recurring trends regarding suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions. The record suggests a previous owner who prioritised preventative maintenance rather than reacting to failures. A physical inspection should still focus on age-related degradation that MOT testers may overlook if it does not meet a failure threshold. Check for chassis corrosion in common Skoda areas and inspect the condition of the rubber seals and suspension components. While the paperwork is clean, verifying the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements is essential given the 2011 manufacture date.
