FIAT 5002017 · 1.2L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy and demonstrates a maintenance trend that is improving toward total stability. The most recent inspection in December 2025 resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the issues identified in previous years have been addressed. This follows a clean pass in 2024, suggesting the car is currently being maintained well to meet annual safety standards. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,281 miles per year. The data shows consistent, slow accumulation, with only about 700 to 900 miles driven annually between 2021 and 2025. While this low usage suggests less wear on the engine and drivetrain, the long intervals between miles can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or fluid-related issues due to lack of regular movement. A prospective buyer should focus on the front suspension during a physical inspection, as the 2023 test flagged worn bushes on both the nearside and offside front suspension arms. Although these were cleared in subsequent tests, the recurring nature suggests these components are susceptible to age-related fatigue despite low mileage. Given the low usage, it is also vital to check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, which often occurs on cars that remain stationary for long periods.
