2015 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · KR65 ACZ

This Fiat 500 demonstrates a consistent roadworthiness record, with every MOT test since 2020 passing without defects or advisories. The most recent inspection, conducted on 3 April 2025 at 42,646 miles, confirms the vehicle remains compliant with current UK standards. The absence of recurring faults or advisories across five consecutive tests suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though no evidence of proactive servicing or wear-and-tear monitoring is apparent. The lack of advisories does not imply the vehicle is free from deferred maintenance—only that it has not yet failed any mandatory MOT criteria. Buyers should treat this as a baseline for further scrutiny. The mileage pattern reveals unusually low annual mileage, averaging just 3,877 miles over the past decade. This suggests the car has either been used sparingly or stood unused for extended periods, particularly between the 2021 and 2023 tests, where mileage only increased by 471 miles over 23 months. Such stagnation raises concerns about fluid degradation (brakes, power steering, transmission) and potential corrosion from prolonged exposure. The gap between the 2020 and 2021 tests—where mileage grew by only 521 miles in 11 months—further implies the vehicle was likely stored rather than driven regularly. This history warrants inspection of fluid conditions and underbody corrosion. Given the lack of advisories, no specific recurring faults are highlighted in the MOT record. However, the low mileage and prolonged inactivity necessitate a thorough examination of critical components. Focus on suspension integrity, particularly coil springs and bushes, which may degrade even without high mileage. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for corrosion or binding, especially if the vehicle was stored with wet brakes. Tyre condition, despite no MOT failures, should be scrutinised for uneven wear or dry rot, as prolonged standing can accelerate deterioration. Underbody inspection is essential to assess structural corrosion, particularly around wheel arches and sills, where moisture accumulation is common. Engine bay fluids—brake fluid, coolant, and power steering fluid—must be inspected for contamination or moisture, indicative of prolonged inactivity.
