FIAT 5002014 · 1.2L Petrol

The 2014 Fiat 500 demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its last three MOT tests, including the most recent April 2025 inspection at 59,867 miles. The vehicle passed all checks without issues, indicating consistent maintenance. A single failed test in October 2023 at the same mileage as the subsequent October 2024 pass suggests a potential administrative error or minor non-critical failure, though no defects were logged. No recurring mechanical faults or structural concerns are evident in the record, implying the car has been well-maintained in recent years. The vehicle’s mileage of 59,867 miles over 12 years equates to approximately 4,989 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage rate, with 52,643 miles in 2022, 55,299 miles in 2023, and 58,119 miles in 2024, suggests infrequent use or periods of inactivity. Such patterns may lead to dry joints, corrosion, or degraded fluids, though the MOT history shows no evidence of these issues. The absence of advisories or defects in the last three years indicates the previous owner prioritized basic upkeep, though the sparse data from 2023’s failed test limits deeper analysis. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for dry or worn bushes, particularly given the low mileage, which can accelerate wear in stationary conditions. Check the brake calipers and discs for binding or uneven wear, as inactivity may cause corrosion. Examine the underbody for rust, especially around the chassis and exhaust system, as low-mileage vehicles are prone to corrosion. Verify tyre condition, as prolonged inactivity can lead to dry rot. While the MOT record shows no critical faults, these components warrant physical verification to confirm the car’s mechanical integrity.
