2014 Skoda Fabia 1.2L Petrol · GL63 ABN

The Skoda Fabia holds a valid MOT pass dated 12 December 2025, approximately seven months before the current review on 21 July 2026, recorded at 67,365 miles with no defects listed. Maintenance trend stays stable across the available history, as the December 2023, 2024 and 2025 examinations all culminated in clean passes despite initial same-day failures that logged no mechanical faults. The vehicle shows no worsening wear, no recurring advisories, and no structural concerns in the official record. Mileage accumulation reflects light use for a twelve-year-old car. The tester logged 59,033 miles on 14 December 2023, 63,983 miles on 12 December 2024, and 67,365 miles on 12 December 2025. This equates to roughly 4,950 miles covered in the first interval and 3,382 in the second, both below the 5,614 annual average derived from total mileage. The consistent December testing pattern shows no gaps, yet the sparse five-entry record limits deep trend analysis. Previous owners likely used the car for short local journeys and stored it adequately, though the same-day fail and pass in 2023 and 2024 hints at procedural rather than mechanical issues at the testing centre. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of age-related components not captured by the MOT. Low mileage combined with probable periods of standing can accelerate corrosion on structural members and suspension bushes despite clean tests. Examine coil springs for snapping, brake discs for surface rust binding calipers, and exhaust emissions system for internal degradation. Verify the DVSA failure reasons from 2023 and 2024 to rule out undocumented administrative defects. Tyres and wiper blades may have aged beyond safe elasticity even with ample tread, so assess rubber condition closely.
