2017 Skoda Fabia 1.0L Petrol · DL66 AFZ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, with the most recent MOT on 2 March 2026 at 26,720 miles recording a Pass and no defects. Over the seven‑year span the test outcomes have been uniformly positive, indicating a stable maintenance trend; the only recorded advisory concerns – tyre surface damage in 2023 and a deteriorated front registration plate in 2025 – were minor and have not recurred. Mileage has risen from 9,477 miles in March 2020 to 26,720 miles in March 2026, averaging roughly 2,900 miles per year. The incremental increases of 1,772 miles (2020‑21), 3,273 miles (2021‑22), 3,179 miles (2022‑23), 3,032 miles (2023‑24), 2,897 miles (2024‑25) and 3,090 miles (2025‑26) show a consistent, low‑usage pattern with no abrupt spikes, suggesting limited wear on wear‑items and no evidence of prolonged storage periods. When inspecting the car, pay particular attention to the tyre condition, especially the front and nearside rear tyres that were noted as slightly damaged or cracking in the 2023 test; verify that the tread depth and sidewall integrity meet current standards. Examine the front registration plate mounting for secure fixation, although it poses no safety risk. A visual check of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and pads, and the under‑body for corrosion will confirm that no latent structural or mechanical issues have developed since the last clean pass.
