FIAT FIORINO2011 · 1.3L Diesel

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-10-29 recorded a pass at 148,465 miles, but a concurrent failure entry with no defects noted raises ambiguity. Previous tests from 2024-10-23, 2023-09-29, and 2022-10-01 all passed with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance record over the preceding four years. However, the lack of an MOT since October 2025 suggests the vehicle may not have been inspected for over a year, potentially masking emerging issues. The absence of structural, brake, or suspension failures in prior tests implies no critical systemic problems, but the recent failed test without explanation warrants further scrutiny. Mileage progression shows a sharp increase between 2022-10-01 (78,898 miles) and 2024-10-23 (140,614 miles), adding 61,716 miles over two years—a rate of 30,858 miles annually. This contrasts with the 9,898-mile average for the vehicle’s age, suggesting possible heavy usage or inconsistent maintenance during this period. The 2025-10-29 test at 148,465 miles marks a 7,851-mile increase in 12 months, aligning with the typical annual average. The sparse defect history, however, does not confirm whether this mileage growth coincided with component wear or neglect. A buyer should verify the vehicle’s current roadworthiness through an independent inspection, focusing on suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness, as these components often degrade with high mileage. The 2025 failure entry, though unexplained, may indicate non-critical issues like sensor faults or minor emissions discrepancies. Structural corrosion and exhaust system integrity should also be checked, as these can develop unnoticed over time. The MOT record lacks details on consumables like tyres or wiper blades, so visual checks for tread depth and condition are advisable.
