Skoda Fabia S 6v (2011)
2011 Skoda Fabia S 6v
CarHunch analysed 110 real MOT records for the 2011 Skoda Fabia S 6v. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2011 Skoda Fabia S 6V is a reliably robust choice, with a first-time MOT pass rate of 90.8%—well above the UK average of 80%—and not a single dangerous defect recorded across 110 vehicles analysed. The complete absence of advisories (0.0 per vehicle) suggests these cars are either well-maintained or simply don't develop the minor niggling issues common in older hatchbacks.
At a median mileage of 69,024 miles for a 13-year-old car, these Fabias have been driven sensibly, and the low failure rate of 0.59 per vehicle indicates that when they do need work it's typically straightforward stuff. If you're considering one, check the service history carefully—these cars reward regular maintenance, and at this mileage and age you should expect one with a full MOT history and recent brake or suspension work logged.
What to check before buying a 2011 Skoda Fabia S 6v
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
