2013 Skoda Fabia 1.2L Petrol · SL13 JVT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes. Following the most recent test on 14 August 2025 at 72,871 miles, the car passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows three consecutive clean passes since a single failure in August 2022, indicating that the previous owner successfully addressed any initial concerns and subsequently maintained the vehicle to a standard that meets minimum regulatory requirements. The mileage pattern is notably low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,600 miles per year. Between August 2023 and August 2025, the car covered 14,279 miles, showing a steady and predictable usage rate. While low annual mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between periods of use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts or corrosion on brake components that do not engage frequently. Given the clean MOT records over the last three years, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age rather than high-mileage wear. Check the suspension for signs of cracking or perished rubber bushes on control arms, as these degrade over time regardless of distance driven. Examine the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, which often occurs on low-use vehicles that sit stationary. Since no structural issues have been flagged in the history, a visual check of the sills and wheel arches remains necessary only to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed since the last test.
