2015 Skoda Fabia 1.2L Petrol · WP64 NFG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a maintenance trend that suggests reactive rather than proactive preventative care. The most recent test on 8 January 2026 at 66,298 miles resulted in a failure due to ineffective windscreen wipers, though these were rectified immediately to achieve a pass. This indicates that the owner addresses specific safety-critical defects once flagged by the tester rather than replacing worn components before the inspection. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. Between January 2024 at 57,657 miles and January 2025 at 62,105 miles, the car covered 4,448 miles, showing relatively low annual usage. While this low mileage generally implies less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it can sometimes lead to rubber-based parts like suspension bushes or seals becoming brittle over time due to long periods of stationary use. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension geometry and alignment, as the 2024 test noted the offside front tyre was worn on the inner edge. This specific wear often points to an out of alignment issue or worn control arm bushes rather than simple tyre age. Additionally, the 2025 failure regarding the nearside dipped beam lamp suggests a simple bulb failure, but a physical check of the wiring loom is advisable to ensure no intermittent electrical faults are present. With no structural corrosion or brake binding issues recorded in the history, the primary focus should remain on verifying the condition of rubber-related components and suspension integrity.
