2013 Fiat Fiorino 1.2L Diesel · YR13 AAE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, though the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive ownership approach. The most recent test in February 2023 at 84,065 miles showed the car passing with advisories for both front tyres being near the legal limit with uneven wear. This followed a failure in February 2022 where the vehicle was rejected for worn brake pads and front strut bushes, suggesting that mechanical issues are addressed only upon failing an inspection. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year over its thirteen-year life. There is a notable gap in records between October 2020 and February 2022, during which the vehicle covered over 11,000 miles. While the low mileage of 84,065 miles generally preserves the drivetrain components, the long interval since the last MOT in February 2023 means the vehicle is currently operating on an expired certificate, and any rubber components may have degraded despite the low distance traveled. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the front suspension geometry, as the Macpherson strut pins and bushes have appeared as recurring faults since 2022. The uneven tyre wear noted in 2023 suggests potential alignment issues or suspension play that warrants a check for worn ball joints or steering components. Given the history of a repaired coil spring in 2018, the remaining springs should be visually inspected for signs of fatigue or corrosion, which are common failure points for this model at this age.
