2009 Skoda Fabia 1.4L Diesel · LS09 KBU

The 2026-06-18 test at 137,330 miles on a 2009 SKODA FABIA was passed with no defects, but the MOT record reveals a distinct pattern of failure in the winter months. In November 2021, the vehicle failed again at 137,330 miles, confirming that the winter months were the primary cause of the current status. This indicates that the most recent maintenance was performed in the spring, likely before the first winter test, and that the vehicle has not undergone a full winter inspection since then. The lack of a failure in November 2021 suggests that the vehicle was serviced in late January or early February, which is a typical window for winter maintenance. Regarding the mileage accumulation, the vehicle has experienced a significant gap in its MOT history. It passed in November 2021 and November 2020, but failed in May 2019. This gap of roughly two years between the most recent two successful tests and the most recent failed test suggests that the vehicle was not maintained during the winter months, which is a critical indicator for roadworthiness. The 137,330 mile test date is the most recent one, but the fact that it was a failure in November 2021 confirms that the vehicle has not been tested in the winter since the 2021 test. Given the failure in November 2021, the vehicle should be inspected for structural integrity and mechanical components. The most recent failure in November 2021 at 137,330 miles indicates that the vehicle was likely subjected to a winter test at this distance. If the buyer is considering purchasing this vehicle, they must verify that the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components are in good condition. The lack of defects in the 2021 test suggests that the vehicle was not excessively worn in the winter, but the failure in November 2021 implies that the vehicle has not been serviced in the winter since then. The buyer should check the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for corrosion or binding, as these components are prone to failure in winter conditions.
