Our Verdict

A sensible purchase for those seeking a

When viewing this specific red 1.2L petrol Fabia, check the condition of all four tyres immediately. The most recent MOT in January 2026 flagged three tyres as being worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edges, suggesting a need for replacement or an investigation into wheel alignment.

Request evidence of any recent service history to complement the MOT records. While the MOT history is relatively clear, ensure that the low mileage has been supported by regular maintenance, particularly given the uneven tyre wear noted in both 2023 and 2026.

The 1198cc petrol engine is typically found in a lower insurance group and tax band, making it economical for urban driving. Fuel economy for this era of Fabia is generally efficient for a small petrol hatchback.

Maintenance costs for this model are typically moderate, though you should budget for tyre replacements more frequently if the uneven wear patterns noted in the MOT history persist. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, sit in the mid-range for a small car.

Focus your inspection on the tyres and suspension. The 2026 MOT highlighted multiple tyres worn on the edges, and the 2023 test noted uneven wear on both front tyres; this can indicate alignment issues or worn suspension components.

While the aggregate data for this model shows common failures in headlamps, suspension arms, and brakes, this specific vehicle has not recorded these failures in its history. However, a physical check of the brake pads and the condition of the headlamp lenses is still recommended as part of a standard pre-purchase inspection.

This 2010 Skoda Fabia has covered 39,489 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average of 6,298 miles per year. The MOT history shows five recorded tests, with only two instances of tyre-related advisories and one recorded nail in a tyre. The vehicle has passed every MOT test to date, including a defect-free result in 2025.

Aggregate data for the Skoda Fabia shows an 80.3% MOT pass rate, with common failure points including headlamps, suspension arms, and braking systems.
