2017 Fiat 500 0.9L Petrol · GX17 ABK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test on 27 October 2025 at 40,636 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, despite an initial failure on the same day. This sequence suggests a minor, perhaps non-mechanical issue that was rectified immediately before the retest, as the vehicle has maintained a clean record without advisories across the previous three annual inspections. The mileage pattern is consistently low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year. Between April 2023 and April 2024, the car covered only 980 miles, indicating a significant period of low-use. The jump of 8,543 miles between April 2024 and October 2025 shows a slight increase in activity but remains well below the national annual average. This low cumulative mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components and brake surfaces from lack of use. Since the record shows no recurring issues with structural integrity or persistent mechanical failures, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to low-mileage neglect. A buyer should check for corrosion on brake discs and seized calipers, which often occur when vehicles sit for long periods. Examining the suspension bushes and tyres for cracking or dry rot is also necessary, as age-related material degradation often precedes mileage-rating wear on older city cars.
