2000 FIAT FIORINO1.7L DIESEL

The most recent MOT for this 2000 FIAT FIORINO was recorded on 2014-07-25, over 12 years ago. At 160,692 miles, the vehicle is 26 years old, with an average annual mileage of 6,180 miles—roughly typical for its age. However, the absence of MOT records post-2014 raises concerns about maintenance continuity. Without recent inspections, it is impossible to confirm if the vehicle has been regularly serviced or if undetected issues have developed. Recurring issues in the MOT history include deteriorated rubber components, such as suspension ball joint dust covers, steering rack gaiters, and constant velocity joint gaiters. These are often linked to age-related material degradation but can also indicate neglect. Brake hoses showed minor deterioration in multiple MOTs (2010–2013), while exhaust system defects, including leaks and cracked pipes, appeared in 2010, 2011, and 2013. These suggest a pattern of gradual wear, particularly in high-stress areas like the exhaust and braking systems. The trend of defects appears stable rather than worsening, as no new or more severe issues were recorded in the later MOTs. However, the lack of post-2014 data means the current condition is unknown.
