FIAT SCUDO2008 · 2.0L DIESEL

The most recent MOT for the 2008 FIAT SCUDO was passed on 2020-08-22 at 185,532 miles. No defects were recorded, which is a positive sign. However, prior MOTs reveal recurring issues, particularly with tyres, suspension components, and braking systems. The 2020-08-17 failure highlighted multiple problems, including a non-working rear fog lamp, tyres worn close to legal limits, and front brake pads below the 1.5 mm safety threshold. These issues suggest ongoing maintenance needs. A pattern of wear and minor defects emerges, particularly with tyres and suspension. Tyres consistently showed signs of wear near legal limits, while track rod end bushes and ball joints had issues with play or damage. The 2018 MOT noted a bulging front tyre, indicating potential structural failure. These recurring problems point to a trend of gradual deterioration in critical components, though the 2020 pass suggests repairs may have addressed some concerns. The vehicle’s mileage of 185,532 miles over 18 years equates to roughly 10,307 miles per year, which is typical for its age.
