2011 Skoda Fabia 1.4L Petrol · CV11 NWK

The Skoda Fabia presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 28 May 2025 at 73,469 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the available history. No advisories or recurring faults appear in the record, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the documented period. Recorded mileage shows light use for a 2011 vehicle. The April 2022 test at 46,615 miles, the April 2023 test at 58,248 miles, the April 2024 test at 66,728 miles, and the May 2025 test at 73,469 miles trace an average annual accumulation of under 5,000 miles. The DVSA entry shows a fail and a pass logged on the same date of 8 April 2022 at identical mileage, with no defects cited; this suggests an administrative re-test rather than a mechanical defect. The sparse, clean record gives little basis to suspect neglected consumables or deferred structural care. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean MOT trail. Low mileage and a 15-year age mean the Fabia may have stood unused for extended periods, raising the risk of perished suspension bushes, flat-spotted tyres, and corroded brake discs or calipers not captured by annual testing. Drivetrain seals and exhaust hangers warrant close visual checks for age-related degradation. Structural integrity cannot be assumed from a defect-free record alone. Examine sills, subframes, and suspension mounting points for corrosion, and confirm brake function under load given the low annual use. The history implies a carefully kept, lightly driven car, but in-person verification of wear items remains prudent before purchase.
