2011 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · KM61 AEV

The 2011 Fiat 500 demonstrates stable roadworthiness based on its most recent MOT on 2025-09-10 at 72,066 miles, which passed with no defects. The prior test on 2025-01-30 at 69,485 miles also passed, while the failed test on 2025-01-21 at 69,469 miles recorded no defects, suggesting a possible administrative error or technical anomaly. No recurring mechanical issues are evident in the record, and the vehicle has maintained compliance with safety standards over the past 18 months. The mileage of 72,066 miles at 15 years old equates to approximately 4,804 miles annually, which is below average for the model’s age. A notable gap exists between the 2023-01-23 test (43,790 miles) and the 2024-01-20 test (55,599 miles), indicating a 11,809-mile increase over 12 months, followed by a sharper rise to 69,485 miles by early 2025. This suggests the vehicle may have experienced periods of inactivity or infrequent use, which could affect components like the battery, fluids, and rubber seals. The absence of defects in recent tests implies consistent maintenance, though the low mileage raises questions about long-term wear on non-consumable parts. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as low mileage can mask gradual degradation. The brake discs and calipers should be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, particularly given the vehicle’s age. Structural integrity is not flagged in the record, but the failed 2025 test—despite no recorded defects—warrants scrutiny of the exhaust system and emissions components. Visual checks for rust on the chassis and body panels are also advised, as prolonged inactivity may accelerate corrosion in hidden areas.
