2005 Skoda Fabia 1.2L Petrol · FG55 YBD

The Skoda Fabia presents a current roadworthy status as of the most recent test on 9 December 2021, when it passed at 69,905 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the supplied record is stable and clean, showing no recurring advisories or mechanical faults. The only anomaly is a failed test on 7 December 2021 at 69,904 miles, where the DVLA entry logs no defects, suggesting an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a worn component. The odometer shows 69,905 miles against a December 2021 test, equating to roughly 3,329 miles per year over the car's 21-year life. This is low for a 2005 vehicle and points to light use or extended periods off the road. The record jumps from a failed entry at 69,904 miles to a pass two days later at 69,905 miles, with no further tests logged since. A near-five-year gap to today's date of 8 July 2026 means the MOT has lapsed and the car has not been assessed for roadworthiness in that span. A buyer should inspect the vehicle in person for corrosion on structural members and suspension mounting points, as a long static period invites moisture damage to sills and subframes. The brake discs and calipers may have seized from standing, and tyres could show sidewall cracking despite low tread wear. Given the sparse history, confirm the 2021 failure cause with the test station and commission a fresh MOT before purchase.
