2021 Skoda Fabia 1.0L Petrol · WD21 HSN

The Skoda Fabia presents a clean bill of health on its most recent MOT, passing on 10 August 2025 at 17,099 miles with zero defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable and, by the evidence of the record, improving. A failure logged just seven days earlier on 25 July 2025 at 16,989 miles shows no defects were recorded, indicating the pass was likely a procedural or administrative retest rather than a mechanical repair. No recurring faults, advisories, or serious structural or mechanical risks appear across the three tests on file. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 2021 vehicle. Between the July 2024 test at 13,812 miles and the August 2025 test at 17,099 miles, the car covered just 3,287 miles over roughly thirteen months. That equates to approximately 250 miles per month, consistent with very light, short-trip use or extended periods of standing. The gap between the 2024 and 2025 tests is a full year, which is standard, but the sparse record, only three tests in five years, limits the depth of trend analysis. No rapid mileage accumulation or irregular gaps are present. With no flagged defects, the MOT record itself raises no red flags around suspension, brakes, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity. Low-mileage cars can still suffer from deteriorated rubber suspension bushes, corroded brake discs, and perished tyres caused by age and lack of use rather than distance. A buyer should inspect the condition of the tyre sidewalls for cracking, check for surface corrosion on brake discs and along the subframe, and examine the exhaust system for early signs of rust-through. The near-new mileage and clean MOT suggest careful prior ownership, but a physical inspection remains essential to confirm the car has not deteriorated from sitting idle between short journeys.
