2015 Skoda Fabia 1.0L Petrol · AV64 WZN

The 2026‑03‑12 MOT passed the 2015 Skoda Fabia at 77,576 miles, confirming roadworthiness despite recorded advisories on suspension arm pins and bushes, tyre damage, a binding rear brake and a minor exhaust leak. The pattern of recurring suspension wear and tyre deterioration across the 2025 and 2026 tests shows no improvement, a stable but concerning maintenance trend. Mileage has risen from 25,895 miles in February 2018 to 77,576 miles by March 2026, averaging about 7,000 miles per year, with the steepest increases occurring between 2022 and 2024, when annual additions exceeded 9,000 miles. A buyer should inspect the front and rear suspension arm pins and bushes for excessive play, verify that the rear brake calipers move freely and that pad thickness meets the legal minimum, and examine the condition of all four tyres for cuts, perishing or worn edges. Check the front brake discs for pitting or scoring that could weaken them, and look for any structural rust on the chassis or wheel arches. Inspect the exhaust joint for leaks and confirm that the wiper blades clear the windscreen effectively. The repeated failures on suspension components and tyre integrity mean a thorough in‑person assessment of these parts will reveal whether the owner has addressed the underlying wear or allowed it to persist.
