2021 Skoda Fabia 1.0L Petrol · KM21 DFZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test on 14 October 2025 at 41,363 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This followed a failure just two miles prior on the same day, though the record does not list specific fault codes. This suggests an administrative error or a minor sensor-related failure that was rectified immediately, rather than a trend of developing mechanical degradation. The mileage pattern is consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,273 miles per year. Between the May 2024 test at 26,152 miles and the October 2025 test, the car covered 15,211 miles in 17 months. This indicates regular use rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and brake components. The lack of any advisory notes across these tests suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to severe environmental neglect. Since the MOT record shows no recurring faults regarding structural corrosion, suspension bushes, or brake calipers, a physical inspection should focus on consumable items that are not captured in the annual test. Check the condition of the tyres for uneven wear which might indicate alignment issues, and inspect the brake discs for excessive pitting. Given the clean history, the drivetrain and engine components should be in good condition, but the buyer should verify that service history matches the mileage intervals to ensure oil changes were performed regularly.
