2017 Skoda Fabia 1.2L Petrol · FV17 FCL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent inspection. The December 2025 test at 112,157 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a pattern of resolving previous issues, as the vehicle has moved from failing tests in 2023 and 2024 to a clean certificate in its most recent MOT. The mileage accumulation is significant for a nine-year-old vehicle. Averaging approximately 12,462 miles per year, the car has covered 112,157 miles to date. The data shows a consistent increase in usage, with the jump from 88,397 miles in July 2023 to 99,948 miles in July 2024 representing over 11,000 miles in a single year. This high-mileage usage suggests the vehicle has been used regularly for commuting or long-distance travel rather than sitting idle. The MOT history shows a recurring trend of failures during the initial testing phases in July 2023 and July 2024. While the most recent records show no current defects, these previous failures indicate that the vehicle has required remedial work to meet minimum standards. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension components, specifically looking for worn bushes or leaking dampers, and check the brake discs for uneven wear or scoring. Given the high mileage, close attention must be paid to the condition of the drivetrain and the integrity of the exhaust system. While the recent pass suggests the vehicle is currently compliant, the high annual mileage increases the likelihood of wear on consumables like tyres, wiper blades, and brake pads. A professional inspection should confirm that the previous failures were addressed through proper mechanical repair rather than temporary fixes.
