2009 Skoda Fabia 1.2L Petrol · AD09 KXS

The Skoda Fabia presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 7 November 2025 at 121,310 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle cleared the final test with no defects recorded. Prior to that pass it failed on 31 October 2025 at 121,297 miles, yet the tester logged no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. A similar pattern occurred in October 2024, when the car failed on the 23rd at 119,772 miles with no defects, then passed cleanly on the 28th at 119,832 miles. The odometer shows 121,310 miles against a 2009 build date, equating to roughly 7,136 miles per year, which is typical for a car of this age. Annual increments are modest: 115,583 miles in October 2023, 119,832 in October 2024, and 121,310 by November 2025. The record shows no gaps exceeding twelve months and no sudden accumulation of high mileage. Given the sparse advisory data, the history reads as clean, though the two zero-defect failures suggest the keeper presented the car for retest without addressing any identified non-MOT failure matter. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's seventeen years in service. The absence of recorded corrosion or structural advisories is favourable, but MOT cleanliness at this age does not confirm underside condition. Verify the reason for the two failed tests where no defect was listed, as DVSA systems occasionally omit data entry. Check tyre tread depth and exhaust emissions in person before purchase. The Fabia's low annual use may have allowed damp-related issues or perished rubber to develop unnoticed between tests. Previous owners kept mileage low and passed most annual tests, implying light commuting rather than neglect, yet the repeated zero-defect failures warrant documentary confirmation from the seller.
