2017 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · CF17 ABK

The 2017 Fiat 500 presents a stable roadworthiness profile with no recorded defects across five consecutive annual MOT tests. In the July 2025 examination at 25,819 miles, the DVSA tester passed the vehicle with no advisories on brake discs, suspension bushes, or exhaust emissions. Earlier checks confirm the same clean outcome: July 2024 at 23,624 miles, July 2023 at 18,874 miles, July 2022 at 15,176 miles, and July 2021 at 11,496 miles each returned a fault-free pass. The maintenance trend is unequivocally stable, showing no worsening or resolving faults across the record. Mileage accumulation sits far below typical averages for a nine-year-old car. The odometer climbed from 11,496 miles in July 2021 to 25,819 miles by July 2025, a span of 14,323 miles over four years equating to roughly 2,869 miles per annum. Each yearly interval shows modest, consistent increments between 3,200 and 4,750 miles, with no gaps or sudden accumulation. That low usage implies previous keepers favoured short urban trips or permitted long storage periods, a pattern that limits drivetrain wear yet can encourage perished tyres and binding calipers through inactivity. Buyers should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished MOT lineage. The record flags no recurring issues on coil springs, structural corrosion, or binding rear brakes, but age-related degradation may evade annual testing if not at failure threshold. A technician must scrutinise suspension bushes for cracking, measure brake disc lips after standing, and probe underbody seams for incipient rust. Tyre sidewalls require assessment for hardening irrespective of tread depth, and consumables like wiper blades fall outside MOT scope yet affect usability.
