Our Verdict

Proceed with caution and budget for imme

When viewing this vehicle, prioritise checking the recent work carried out to address the February 2026 MOT failure. Specifically, ask for receipts confirming that the front brake pads, brake discs, and the offside front suspension arm pin/bush were replaced. Because these items were flagged in both 2025 and 2026, you should verify the quality of the parts used.

Negotiate based on the recurring nature of the advisories. The fact that brake discs and pads were noted as thinning or worn in 2024, 2025, and then failed in 2026 suggests a pattern of wear that may require closer inspection of the braking system's overall health. Ensure the service history is available to see if these components were serviced between MOT intervals.

The 1198cc petrol engine is generally positioned in a lower insurance group, making it affordable for many drivers. Fuel economy for this model variant is typically efficient for city and suburban driving.

Maintenance costs for a Skoda Fabia are usually moderate, though you should anticipate regular spending on consumables like brake pads and discs, given the history of this specific car. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, fall in the mid-range for a small petrol hatchback.

Focus your inspection on the front end of the vehicle. The MOT history specifically highlights issues with the offside front suspension arm pin/bush and the front braking system. Even though the 2026 test was passed, check for any unusual knocks or vibrations from the front suspension during a test drive.

Additionally, inspect the front brake discs for any signs of uneven wear or scoring, as this has been a recurring advisory since 2024. Check the tyre tread and condition, as suspension wear can sometimes lead to uneven tyre degradation.

This 2014 red Skoda Fabia 1.2L petrol has covered 56,368 miles, which is relatively low for its age. However, the MOT history reveals a trend of brake-related issues and suspension wear dating back to 2024. The most recent test in February 2026 resulted in a failure due to worn brake pads, discs, and a suspension arm bush, though these were rectified for the pass.

Aggregate data for this model shows an 80.3% MOT pass rate, with common failure points including headlamps, suspension arms, and service brakes.
