2018 Skoda Fabia 1.0L Petrol · CX68 WFK

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-10-28 at 144,319 miles showed no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend over the past 12 months. Previous tests from 2024-11-06 (138,310 miles) and 2023-11-09 (132,797 miles) also passed without issues, suggesting consistent upkeep. However, the 2023-11-09 record lists a failed test alongside a passed result for the same mileage, which may reflect a data entry error. Despite this inconsistency, the absence of defects in the last three tests implies the car has been well-maintained in recent years. The vehicle’s mileage of 144,319 miles over eight years equates to an average of 18,040 miles annually, which is above the typical range for its age. A significant jump from 128,073 miles in 2022 to 132,797 miles in 2023 suggests rapid usage, potentially accelerating wear on components like suspension bushes, brake discs, and drivetrain parts. The MOT history shows no gaps in testing, but the high annual mileage raises concerns about long-term mechanical resilience. The lack of recorded defects does not necessarily confirm fault-free operation, as some issues may not trigger MOT failures. A buyer should inspect the suspension for worn coil springs or bushings, which could cause uneven tyre wear or handling issues. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, as high mileage increases the risk of these problems. The exhaust system and structural integrity, particularly around the chassis, warrant scrutiny, as corrosion can develop in older vehicles. While the MOT records show no immediate risks, the vehicle’s usage pattern and age necessitate a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm its mechanical condition.
