2011 Skoda Fabia 1.2L Petrol · HW60 MVL

The Skoda Fabia presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 July 2025 at 42,911 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing a clean run of examinations. Prior to that, the 15 July 2024 test at 37,373 miles also passed with no advisories, following a failed attempt on 10 July 2024 at the same mileage where the tester logged no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. The odometer shows 42,911 miles against a 2011 build, averaging roughly 2,861 miles per year. The gap between the 17 November 2021 test at 30,587 miles and the 2 December 2022 test at 34,396 miles reflects light annual use of around 3,800 miles. From December 2022 to July 2024 the car covered only 2,977 miles, then added 5,538 miles by July 2025. This low cumulative mileage and sparse but clean record suggest gentle use, though prolonged standing between tests remains a possibility the buyer should consider. No recurring faults, advisories, or structural concerns appear across the five recorded tests. The absence of flagged items such as corroded suspension bushes, worn brake discs, or exhaust issues points to a vehicle whose previous keepers kept basic upkeep current. A single non-defect failure in July 2024 hints at a paperwork or identification error rather than neglected maintenance. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the car. Standing vehicles often develop hidden corrosion on sills and subframes not caught in a pass-with-no-defects test. Check tyre sidewall cracking from low mileage storage, verify brake caliper freedom after periods out of use, and confirm the 2024 failure cause with the test centre to rule out any omitted fault.
