2018 Skoda Fabia 1.0L Petrol · FH67 ORP

The vehicle presents a highly stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass. The most recent test on 13 January 2026 at 48,088 miles recorded zero defects, demonstrating excellent mechanical condition. Prior to this, the 2023 test at 34,328 miles shows a failed entry, yet notably lists no recorded defects, followed immediately by a pass on the same day at the same mileage. This anomaly aside, the subsequent three consecutive annual tests passed without a single advisory or defect, indicating a consistent and well-maintained mechanical state. The mileage accumulation aligns perfectly with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle. Between January 2023 and January 2024, the odometer advanced from 34,328 to 38,260 miles, covering 3,932 miles. The following year, up to January 2025, it rose to 42,163 miles, an increase of 3,903 miles. Most recently, the 12-month period leading to January 2026 saw the mileage climb from 42,163 to 48,088, totalling 5,925 miles. This pattern shows a slight uptick in recent usage but remains well within the expected average of roughly 6,000 miles per year, ruling out extreme high-mileage wear or suspiciously long standing periods. Although the MOT record remains entirely free of recurring faults or advisories, a physical inspection should focus on typical wear items for a supermini of this age and mileage. Examine the condition of the tyres for uneven wear, which could indicate misaligned tracking or deteriorating suspension bushes. Check the brake discs and pads for scoring or lipping, as mixed driving at this mileage often causes surface corrosion even if braking efficiency remains within tolerance. Inspect the coil springs and shock absorbers for leaks or corrosion, and verify the structural integrity of the underbody and suspension mounting points for any signs of rust or damage not captured during a standard MOT test.
