2011 Skoda Fabia 1.2L Petrol · SK08 ASK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows signs of gradual degradation in the suspension components. While it passed its most recent test in August 2025 at 91,705 miles, it failed just one day prior due to a fractured offside front coil spring. The presence of advisories for worn suspension arm bushes and play in the track rod end indicates that the front suspension assembly is reaching the end of its functional life. At approximately 91,705 miles, the wayia has averaged roughly 6,100 miles per year over its 14-year lifespan. This is consistent with typical UK usage patterns, suggesting low-intensity annual mileage. The mileage accumulation is steady, with approximately 6,700 miles covered between the August 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 6,300 miles in the final year, which explains the wear on rubber components and mechanical seals. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension system, as recurring issues with suspension arm bushes and track rod joints have been flagged across multiple tests since 2024. The non-excessive oil leak noted in the August 2025 report requires close monitoring to determine if it originates from the engine seal or a way-relatedion. Furthermore, given the previous failures for worn tyres and wipers, the current condition of all rubber plastics and tyre clearance should be verified to ensure they have not deteriorated again toward legal limits.
