2014 FIAT 5001.2L Petrol

The 2014 Fiat 500 presents as roadworthy following the most recent DVSA test on 16 January 2026 at 48,963 miles, where the tester recorded a pass with no defects. Maintenance trend remains stable across the available record. The preceding day's failure at 48,962 miles with no defects logged points to an administrative rejection or immediate rectification rather than a mechanical fault, and the swift pass confirms the vehicle met requirements. Mileage accumulation stays low for a twelve-year-old car. From the 6 February 2023 test at 45,612 miles to the 26 January 2024 examination at 47,127 miles the odometer advanced 1,515 miles. The 31 January 2025 reading of 48,128 miles added 1,001 miles, and the January 2026 tests show only 835 miles further. Such gentle, consistent annual use suggests light commuting or prolonged storage rather than neglected high-mileage wear. No advisories or defects appear in any test back to 2023, so the MOT history alone reveals no recurring suspension, brake, or corrosion issues. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for age-related fatigue not captured by a clean pass. The tester would not flag minor surface corrosion unless structural; examine sills and subframes for rust. Verify the absence of binding calipers and check exhaust emissions against expected norms for the engine variant. The repeated clean results imply prior owners maintained basic compliance, yet low mileage can mask degraded rubber components and flat-spotted tyres from standing. Inspect wiper blades and tyre sidewalls, and confirm a full service record to supplement the sparse MOT data.
