2013 Skoda Fabia 1.4L Petrol · GL13 BNX

The vehicle shows an improving maintenance trend, with the most recent test on 11 March 2025 at 79,805 miles recording a clean pass with no defects. This follows a period of instability in early 2024 when the car failed on 11 March 2024 at 67,974 miles due to a parking brake efficiency issue, an oil leak, and pitted rear brake discs. The subsequent pass on 12 March 2024 indicates that the owner addressed these specific mechanical faults, effectively resolving the previous year's issues. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,139 miles per year. The data shows steady progress from 25,563 miles in June 2016 to the current 79,805 miles. There are no significant gaps in the testing history, and the incremental increases between annual tests suggest regular, predictable usage rather than long periods of inactivity or sudden, heavy mileage spikes. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and the engine's sealing integrity. While the 2024 advisories regarding rear brake discs and the oil leak were cleared in the 2025 test, recurring issues with brake discs and parking brake efficiency suggest these components require close monitoring. The tester also flagged uneven tyre wear on inner edges in May 2022 and various tyre defects between 2020 and 2021. This pattern indicates potential issues with wheel alignment or suspension geometry, such as worn bushes or incorrect camber, which warrants a thorough check of the front and rear suspension components.
