2021 Skoda Fabia 1.0L Petrol · BV71 RBF

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on its clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 19 August 2025 at 6,478 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle has remained within operational parameters without any mechanical failures or structural concerns being flagged during the official testing process. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,300 miles per year. Between the September 2024 test at 6,016 miles and the August 2025 test at 6,478 miles, the car covered only 462 miles. This pattern suggests the vehicle is used infrequently or has sat stationary for long periods of time. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension, it can introduce specific risks related to stagnation. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should inspect the vehicle for issues common with low-mileage use. Stationary periods can lead to flat spotting on tyres and corrosion of brake discs if the car is not driven regularly. A physical inspection should check for sidewall cracking on tyres due to age rather rubber degrades regardless of tread depth. The buyer should also verify that brake fluid has not absorbed moisture and that calipers have not seized from lack of use.
