2013 Skoda Fabia 1.2L Petrol · FW13 ABF

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable and clean maintenance history. The most recent inspection conducted on 29 May 2025 at 45,680 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, continuing a trend of perfect passes across the last five tests. This suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard without the recurring mechanical or structural failures typically seen in cars of this age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old car, averaging approximately 3,500 miles per year. There is a notable gap between the July 2020 test at 37,497 miles and the May 2022 test at 41,504 miles, indicating the vehicle likely sat stationary for extended periods during that interval. Since 2022, usage has remained consistent, averaging roughly 1,500 miles per annum. This low mileage generally implies less wear and tear on the drivetrain, engine components, and braking system compared to high-mileage counterparts. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should focus on issues associated with low-mileage vehicles that sit. Check for degradation of rubber components, such as perished bushes, split boots, and tyre sidewalls, which crack over time regardless of distance driven. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or seized calipers, as infrequent use can lead to uneven wear. Because the record shows no history of structural rust or corrosion, the chassis appears sound, but a physical inspection confirms no hidden oxidation remains on the underbody.
