2016 Fiat Tipo 1.6L Diesel · WF66 AEM

The 2016 Fiat Tipo presents as roadworthy following a pass on 2 April 2026 at 105,923 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across its recorded history. The most recent test cleared the car with no defects logged, though the prior day's failure on 1 April 2026 at 105,910 miles carries no recorded defect reason, a pattern that suggests an administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. Across the five available tests, the vehicle avoided any advisories or identified wear items, indicating no escalating mechanical concerns. Annual mileage sits at roughly 10,592 miles, typical for a ten-year-old car of this class. The records show steady accumulation: 80,242 miles in August 2023, 90,694 by September 2024, 101,699 in September 2025, and 105,923 by April 2026. No standing periods or sudden jumps appear. The clean sheet across every entry means the DVSA data offers little evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished record. The absence of advisories does not rule out worn suspension bushes, corroding subframes, or fatigued coil springs that testers may have overlooked or that developed after the April 2026 pass. Given the car's age and 105,923 miles, brake disc thickness, exhaust integrity, and underbody structural condition warrant hands-on checks. The unexplained failure on 1 April 2026 remains the only anomaly. Confirm with the selling garage whether the car required rectification or merely a retest booking. Beyond that, the MOT trail implies conscientious previous ownership, but paper cleanliness is no substitute for a ramp-based survey before purchase.
