2017 FIAT DOBLO1.4L Petrol

The 2017 Fiat Doblo presents a roadworthy status as of the most recent test, passing on 2 August 2025 at 58,667 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with every pass showing a clean sheet and no advisories logged at any stage. The vehicle cleared its final assessment just under a year before the current date, so the record remains reasonably fresh. Odometer readings show light use for a nine-year-old vehicle. The van covered 46,403 miles at the 14 November 2022 test, rose to 50,175 miles for the 28 September 2023 failure and 50,179 miles two days later, then reached 58,667 miles by August 2025. That equates to roughly 6,500 miles per year, below the national average, suggesting gentle commuting or intermittent standing rather than heavy load cycles. The DVSA data is sparse, with only three pass entries and two same-day failures, and none list a recorded defect. The twin failures on 28 September 2023 and 2 August 2025 at identical mileages to the subsequent passes are anomalous. DVSA systems log such pairs when administrative or presentation issues block the certificate rather than mechanical fault, since no defects appear on either side. A buyer should still confirm with the seller why the tester rejected the vehicle initially and request the genuine failure reasons. In person, inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers for binding, plus underbody corrosion and exhaust emissions, despite the clean advisories. Low mileage with long gaps can hide perished rubber and surface rust. Verify service history to support the spotless MOT trail.
