2014 Skoda Fabia 1.2L Petrol · YA63 OGS

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of improvement following intermittent failures. The most recent test conducted on 15 August 2025 at 102,316 miles returned no defects, indicating that the previous mechanical or safety issues have been successfully rectified. While the history shows failures in 2023 and 2024, the subsequent clean passes suggest the current owner is proactive in addressing MOT faults once identified. The mileage pattern is consistent with a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,500 miles per year. Between the July 2023 test at 91,819 miles and the August 2024 test at 97,942 miles, the car covered 6,123 miles, representing a slightly lower annual average. The subsequent 4,374 miles covered in the year leading up to the 2025 test shows a return to regular usage, which is generally beneficial for mechanical components and rubber seals that can degrade during periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific areas that caused the failures in July 2023 and July 2024, as the exact nature of those faults is not detailed in the summary record. Given the age and mileage of this Fabia, it is vital to inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, which are common points of failure on this model. Check the brake discs for uneven wear and the exhaust system for structural corrosion to ensure that the recent clean passes have not masked developing structural issues that may manifest in the next test.
