2017 Fiat Roller Team 2.3L Diesel · BX17 AFA

This Fiat Roller Team has maintained a consistent roadworthiness record over the past four MOT cycles, each passing without defects or advisories. The most recent test on 6 May 2025—just over a year ago—confirmed no issues, aligning with the vehicle’s history of clean passes. While the absence of recurring faults suggests the car has been kept in stable condition, the lack of advisories also means no prior warnings were issued for components like suspension bushes, coil springs, or binding calipers, which could indicate either diligent maintenance or deferred attention to potential wear. The recorded mileage of 33,479 miles over nine years implies an unusually low annual average of approximately 3,720 miles, well below typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this age. The gaps between tests are irregular but not extreme: the largest span is between the 2022 and 2023 tests, covering 18,872 miles in just over a year, while the most recent interval of 3,290 miles spans 13 months. Such low mileage could reflect limited use, though it also raises questions about whether the vehicle has been stored long-term, which may accelerate wear on fluids, seals, or suspension components from prolonged inactivity. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an inspection of high-wear items that aren’t routinely tested, such as the suspension bushes and coil springs, which may show signs of fatigue even without binding. The brakes—though never flagged—should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion on the discs and calipers, particularly if the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary. Tyres, while not recorded as faults, warrant scrutiny for uneven tread wear or embedded debris, as low mileage doesn’t necessarily correlate with consistent tyre rotation or pressure maintenance. Finally, a thorough examination of the underbody for corrosion, especially around the wheel arches and sills, is advisable, as rust can compromise structural integrity without necessarily appearing in MOT reports.
