ABARTH 5952018 · 1.4L Petrol

The 2018 Abarth 595 presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with all five MOT tests from 2021 to 2025 recording no defects. The most recent assessment on 2025-04-16 at 41,971 miles confirmed compliance, reinforcing a consistent maintenance pattern. No recurring issues or structural concerns were flagged across the history, suggesting the vehicle has been well-maintained within the scope of mandatory inspections. The absence of advisories or failures indicates no immediate mechanical risks, though the low mileage relative to age warrants scrutiny of long-term storage effects. The vehicle’s mileage progression shows gradual accumulation, with annual increments averaging 5,000–5,500 miles. From 17,007 miles in 2021 to 41,971 in 2025, the pattern reflects steady use rather than rapid wear. Gaps between MOTs align with standard intervals, and no anomalies in mileage spikes or extended inactivity are evident. This suggests the owner prioritised regular servicing, though the low annual average could imply periods of reduced operation, potentially affecting components like seals, belts, or battery health. The clean record lacks data on non-MOT-related maintenance, such as fluid changes or suspension checks, which a buyer should verify independently. A physical inspection should focus on components prone to degradation during low-mileage storage, including suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers for binding. Corrosion risks, particularly in underbody areas, merit attention given the vehicle’s age. While the MOT history confirms no structural faults, the lack of detailed servicing records means critical systems like the exhaust, steering, and electrical components should be scrutinised. Buyers should also assess tyre condition, as low mileage can lead to uneven wear or dry rot, and confirm the battery’s age and charge capacity. Overall, the vehicle’s MOT history supports its roadworthiness but does not replace a comprehensive pre-purchase check.
