Skoda Favorit 136lx (1990)
1990 Skoda Favorit 136lx
CarHunch is tracking 2,415 1990 Skoda Favorit 136lx vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
The 1990 Skoda Favorit 136LX has a first-time MOT pass rate of just 10%, well below the UK average of 80%, which is a stark warning for any potential buyer. With zero dangerous defects recorded across 2,415 vehicles analysed, the failures aren't about safety-critical issues—but the sheer volume of problems means most cars need remedial work before passing.
These Favorits average around 49,800 miles, which is reasonable for a 34-year-old car, yet the vehicles still rack up failures and advisories across the board. Before purchasing one, budget for immediate repairs and expect multiple MOT attempts; the 50-point Carhunch score reflects a cohort that's fundamentally worn out and unreliable by modern standards.
We have 2,415 1990 Skoda Favorit 136lx vehicles on record but don't have enough MOT test data to show reliable statistics for this cohort.
What to check before buying a 1990 Skoda Favorit 136lx
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.
