2006 Skoda Fabia 1.4L Diesel · AE06 FKX

The most recent MOT test took place on 14 July 2022 at 129,240 miles and resulted in a failure with no defects formally recorded by the tester. This leaves the vehicle's current roadworthiness unconfirmed, as no subsequent pass appears on file and the record is now nearly four years old. The maintenance trend cannot be classed as stable, worsening, or improving from the data alone, given the sparse and contradictory entries. Mileage stood at 121,579 on 28 July 2021, rose to the same figure a day later on 29 July 2021 for a pass, then climbed to 129,240 by the 2022 failure, an annual gain of roughly 7,661 miles. That is marginally above the lifetime average of 6,462 and reflects ordinary use for a two-decade-old hatchback. The record is clean of advisories and defects across all three entries, though the twin 2021 tests a day apart followed by a 2022 fail with no noted fault suggest administrative or presentation issues rather than documented mechanical neglect. A buyer must treat the 2022 failure as unresolved. With no defects listed, the cause may be a documentation error, missing certificate, or unrecorded fault, so a fresh MOT is essential before any purchase. Given the car's age and 129,240 miles, in-person checks should target structural corrosion on sills and subframes, suspension bushes, coil springs, brake disc wear, and exhaust integrity. The lack of advisories across the history implies no flagged consumable or mechanical trends, but the stale test status means the Fabia could conceal worn tyres, binding calipers, or rust unseen since 2022. Previous keepers logged only minimal annual mileage, yet the unexplained fail warrants caution over long-term care.
