2017 FIAT 5001.2L Petrol

The vehicle remains roadworthy with a valid MOT certificate current as of January 2026. The maintenance trend is broadly stable across the seven-year MOT history, with six consecutive clean passes preceding the most recent test. However, the January 2026 inspection recorded an alteration to the internal headlight adjuster to recheck lights. This modification suggests a previous owner or workshop tampered with the optical alignment, which warrants scrutiny regarding the integrity of the lighting system beyond the current pass. At 32,049 miles after nine years, the average annual mileage sits at roughly 3,561 miles per year. This figure is notably low for a vehicle of this age and model. The MOT intervals show consistent annual testing without significant gaps, indicating the car was kept in regular use rather than abandoned. However, such low usage often means suspension components and rubber seals degrade through sitting rather than wear, potentially affecting ride quality despite the low odometer reading. A buyer should physically inspect the nearside front brake disc, as the February 2024 record flagged it as worn, pitted, or scored. Although the vehicle passed at that mileage, recurring scoring suggests the disc may have been replaced or repaired between that test and the current one. The headlight adjustment alteration requires a visual check to confirm the beam pattern is correctly aimed and the adjustment mechanism is not seized. Examine the underbody and suspension bushes for signs of corrosion or cracking that occur during long periods of inactivity.
