ABARTH 1242016 · 1.4L PETROL

The vehicle has a very clean MOT history with no recorded defects in its last two tests, including the most recent pass in March 2025. The condition trend appears stable, as there are no recorded failures or advisories to suggest a decline in mechanical health. However, the MOT history is limited, with a significant gap between 2019 and 2025. The mileage is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old car. Between October 2019 and March 2025, the vehicle covered only 110 miles. This indicates the car has spent the vast majority of its life stationary rather than in active use. While this means there is very little wear on the engine and drivetrain, extreme under-use presents its own set of risks. Long periods of standing can lead to perished rubber components, seized brake calipers, and tyres developing flat spots or cracking due to age rather than tread wear. A buyer should first inspect the tyres for age-related cracking and check that the brakes operate smoothly without sticking. It is also essential to verify the condition of all rubber seals and bushings that may have degraded while the car was dormant.
