2007 Skoda Fabia 1.2L Petrol · CU57 RZV

The Skoda Fabia presents as roadworthy on the most recent test, passing on 1 May 2024 at 130,079 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend reads as stable across the available history, with every pass and fail showing a clean sheet of advisories or faults. The only anomaly is the paired fail and pass logged on the same day in May 2024, suggesting an administrative or presentation issue at the test centre rather than a mechanical defect. Recorded mileage sits at a typical level for a 2007 vehicle, averaging roughly 6,846 miles per year across its life. The gap between the October 2021 test at 116,039 miles and the February 2023 failure at 123,498 miles covers about 7,459 miles in fifteen months, a normal use rate. From February 2023 to May 2024 the car added only 6,581 miles, confirming light recent use rather than high-stress driving. The repeated fails on 17 February 2023 and 1 May 2024 carry no recorded defects, so the DVSA data gives no signal of suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions problems. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody rust given the car is nineteen years old, and verify the May 2024 same-day fail-pass was a clerical matter and not a concealed rejection. Given the sparse and clean record, previous owners appear to have kept the Fabia to a basic pass standard with no flagged consumable neglect such as tyres or wiper blades. The low advisory count offers no evidence of worsening mechanical risk, though standing time implied by low annual mileage can mask perished rubber components and stagnant brake calipers best checked on a road test.
