2020 Skoda Fabia 1.0L Petrol · DU70 AFF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 20 August 2025 at 43,711 miles which passed with no recorded defects. This indicates an improving maintenance trend compared to the previous year, as the owner successfully addressed identified issues. The overall history shows no recurring mechanical failures or structural weaknesses across the three recorded inspections. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,300 miles annually. Between the August 2023 test at 21,550 miles and the August 2024 test at 33,095 miles, the car covered 11,545 miles, while the final interval saw 10,616 miles leading to the 2025 test. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle is used regularly, which generally helps in keeping drivetrain components and seals lubric compared to a stationary car. The only recorded concern occurred in August 2024 when the tester flagged cracking or perishing on both the nearside and offside rear tyres. This type of defect often indicates the vehicle sat stationary for extended periods or was exposed to harsh environmental conditions, causing the rubber degradation. While these were cleared before the 2025 pass, a buyer should inspect the current tyre set for similar sidewall cracking to ensure the issue has not returned. Given the lack of advisories regarding suspension components or brake corrosion, the physical inspection should focus on standard consumable wear. Check the brake discs for uneven wear and inspect the suspension bushes for perishing, as the MOT record does not highlight these areas. The clean report from the most recent test suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a functional standard, provided the service history aligns with these mileage intervals.
