2010 Skoda Fabia 1.4L Diesel · YH10 SYO

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, maintaining a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 24 June 2025 at 48,833 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This stable trend of passing without over the last five years indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and avoids the common mechanical or structural failures typical in older models. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,000 miles per year. Between June 2021 at 13,904 miles and July 2024 at 40,392 miles, the car covered roughly 27,000 miles. This low usage pattern typically results in less wear on the drivetrain, engine, and braking components. However, such low annual mileage can sometimes lead to age-related issues such as the degradation of rubber components or fluid breakdown if the vehicle sat stationary for long periods between tests. Given the lack of recorded advisories in the history, an in-person inspection should focus on components affected by time rather than mileage. A buyer should inspect the suspension bushes and rubber mounts for cracking or perished material which often occurs with age. It is also prudent to check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-use vehicles frequently suffer from rust. Checking the structural integrity of the sills and wing arches remains essential to ensure hidden rust has not developed despite the clean history.
