2018 Skoda Fabia 1.0L Petrol · FN18 RYM

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history, indicating a stable and high standard of mechanical maintenance. The most recent test on 28 March 2025 at 43,734 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting the car has been kept in a roadworthy condition without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a 2018 model, averaging roughly 5,467 miles per year. The record shows a steady increase in usage, rising from 13,320 miles in April 2022 to 43,734 miles by March 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest undisclosed commercial use or long periods of stagnation, which typically lead to perished seals or seized calipers. One anomaly appears on 20 April 2022, where the vehicle failed and passed on the same day at 13,320 miles. The record lists no specific defects for either entry, which often points to a clerical error or a minor administrative failure rather than a mechanical fault. The absence of any advisories regarding brake disc corrosion, suspension bush wear, or exhaust leaks across four years of testing is uncommon and suggests a well-preserved example. A physical inspection should focus on components that degrade regardless of mileage. The buyer should check the condition of the tyres and brake pads for age-related cracking or glazing, as low-mileage cars often run on old rubber long after the tread has worn. Checking for signs of moisture buildup in the cabin or rodent damage to the wiring loom is also advisable given the light annual usage.
