2020 Skoda Karoq 1.5L Petrol · YY69 XWH

The 2020 Skoda Karoq is currently roadworthy, holding a valid MOT passed at its most recent test on 23 December 2025, roughly six months prior to the current date of 16 June 2026, at 63,535 miles. The maintenance trend across its recorded MOT history is broadly stable, with no recurring major structural or mechanical failures, though minor consumable and suspension wear items have appeared intermittently across the test record. Mileage accumulation is consistent with typical private use for a vehicle of its age, averaging roughly 10,600 miles per year across the 5-year span between its first recorded MOT on 28 December 2022 at 30,727 miles and its most recent test in December 2025 at 63,535 miles. There are no notable gaps in testing or sudden spikes in recorded mileage that would suggest irregular use or hidden unrecorded mileage, and the annual average aligns with standard usage patterns for a family vehicle. For a prospective buyer, a hands-on pre-purchase inspection should prioritise checking the front suspension arm bushes for excessive play, as the December 2023 MOT tester flagged worn bushes on both the nearside and offside front at the 40,287-mile test, even though the wear did not cause a test failure at that time. Worn suspension bushes accelerate uneven tyre wear and degrade handling response, so assessing current play will confirm whether the components have degraded further since the last recorded test. All tyres should also be thoroughly checked for tread depth, embedded objects, and sidewall damage, given the recurring tyre advisories across the test history including heavily worn front tyre edges in December 2022, a front nail in December 2024, and a damaged rear tyre in the most recent 2025 test. Verifying current tyre condition and confirming any required replacements have been completed will rule out lapsed basic upkeep or underlying suspension misalignment that may have contributed to the earlier edge wear noted in 2022.
