2016 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · YT66 ABK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, though the most recent test on 6 November 2025 at 33,043 miles indicates the onset of suspension wear. The tester flagged worn pins or bushes on both the nearside and offside front suspension arms. While these did not cause excessive movement at the time of testing, they represent a shift from the clean records seen in previous years. The mileage is exceptionally low for a ten year old car, averaging roughly 3,304 miles per year. The record shows a consistent and slow accumulation of distance, moving from 17,355 miles in June 2019 to 33,043 miles by November 2025. This pattern suggests the car has seen light use, which typically preserves the drivetrain but can lead to perishing rubber components and seals due to inactivity. A prospective buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the front suspension. The recurring mention of worn bushes, starting with the rear upper shock absorbers in November 2021 at 25,972 miles and progressing to the front arms in 2025, suggests a general degradation of the rubber suspension mounts. This is common for low-mileage vehicles of this age where components age chronologically rather than through mechanical wear. The rest of the history is largely unremarkable. A minor failure for headlamp aim in November 2022 at 28,070 miles was resolved immediately, and a superficial tyre cut noted in November 2024 at 31,853 miles did not compromise the carcass. Beyond the suspension bushings, the vehicle has maintained a clean record with no mentions of structural corrosion or brake deterioration.
