FIAT 5002018 · 0.9L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from clean records to emerging mechanical wear. The most recent test in April 2026 at 58,167 miles identified a non-excessive oil leak, a worn nearside front brake disc, and a slightly distorted nearside front wheel. These defects represent a departure from the previous two years of testing where no failures or failures were recorded, suggesting that components are now beginning to require proactive attention. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,271 miles per year. Between the 2022 test at 29,959 miles and the 2026 test at 58,167 miles, the car covered 28,208 miles at steady intervals. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often leads to internal component failure, though the cumulative mileage has led to the natural degradation of wear items noted in the latest entry. A buyer should focus specifically on the front braking system, as the record shows a recurring history of thin pads from 2022 through 2023, followed by a worn disc in 2026. The distorted nearside front wheel also requires a physical inspection to ensure it is not causing vibration under braking or uneven wear on the tyre. Furthermore, the oil leak identified in April 2026 needs a close examination to determine if it is a minor seal weep or a more significant gasket failure that could lead to oil starvation if left unaddressed.
