2017 Skoda Fabia 1.2L Petrol · GJ17 AAX

The 2017 Skoda Fabia is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 9 March 2026 at 71 658 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears largely stable, with only sporadic consumable wear and a single system fault flagged in March 2025. The vehicle has shown no major structural issues in any of the six MOTs recorded. From 28 671 miles in March 2020 to 71 658 miles in March 2026, the Fabia accumulated 42 987 miles over six years, averaging 7 162 miles per annum. The annual mileage between 2024 and 2026 is 5 002 miles, a modest decline from the earlier 7 800 miles per year, indicating consistent use without abrupt spikes. The gaps between tests are regular, with no sudden increases in mileage that would suggest neglected maintenance. Buyers should examine the rear brake discs, which were noted as significantly worn in the March 2023 test, and verify that new discs and pads are fitted. Tyre tread should be checked; the front tyres were close to the legal limit in 2021 and 2024, and the front outer tyre was worn to the edge in 2024. Inspect the suspension bushes and steering linkage for any cracking or play, as the vehicle has a history of tyre edge wear that can be linked to suspension alignment. The supplementary restraint system warning lamp that failed in March 2025 warrants a check of the seat‑belt anchorage points, airbag inflators, and associated wiring. Overall, the Fabia shows a stable maintenance record with no major structural defects. The primary concerns are consumable wear on tyres and brake components, and a past supplementary restraint system fault. A thorough visual and functional inspection of the braking system, tyres, suspension, and safety harnesses will confirm that the vehicle remains roadworthy and safe for purchase.
