2014 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · OE64 AEC

The vehicle currently presents in a roadworthy state, having achieved a clean pass during its most February 2026 test at 43,587 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently addressed any issues identified during previous inspections. While the history shows two failures in 2023 and 2024, the subsequent passes without any recorded defects suggest the owner is proactive in rectifying mechanical faults to maintain legal roadworthiness. The mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,600 miles per year. Data shows very short intervals of use, such as the mere 60 miles recorded between the November 2024 failure and its successful pass four days later, and only 60 miles between the two 2023 tests. This low usage suggests the vehicle has undergone minimal mechanical strain and engine wear, but also increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber components, seals, and fluid breakdown due to periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific components that caused the failures in November 2023 and November 2024, as the record does not specify the exact mechanical reasons for these declines. Given the low mileage, it is vital to check for tyre deformation, perished suspension bushes, and seized brake calipers, which often occur when cars sit stationary for long periods. Inspect the structural integrity for corrosion along the underside sills, as older Fiat 500 models are susceptible to rust regardless of the total miles driven.
