2011 Skoda Fabia 1.6L Diesel · AF11 NTL

The Skoda Fabia presents as roadworthy following the most recent DVSA test, which the tester passed on 7 June 2024 at 174,634 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable, showing a clean pass sequence from 2021 through 2024 with no advisories or mechanical faults raised at any stage. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 2011 vehicle, averaging roughly 11,642 miles per year against the 174,634 recorded. The records show 115,590 miles on 14 June 2021, rising to 143,092 by 13 June 2022, 158,872 by 8 June 2023, and 174,634 by June 2024. Annual increments of around 15,000 to 16,000 miles indicate consistent use with no standing periods or abrupt high-use spikes. The MOT data is sparse in faults but clean, with no consumable wear or structural concerns logged across the five-year span. A notable anomaly appears in the June 2024 record: the tester failed the car on 6 June 2024 at 174,634 miles yet logged no defects, before passing it the following day with the same mileage and again no defects. This suggests an administrative or procedural error at the test centre rather than a genuine mechanical fault. The buyer should still confirm with the selling garage what triggered the failed entry. Given the absence of flagged advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion, no specific component requires urgent scrutiny from the record alone. The buyer should nonetheless arrange a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody rust, as a 15-year-old high-mileage hatchback can hide untreated corrosion not captured in a pass-only MOT sequence.
