2008 Fiat Bravo 1.4L Petrol · AC08 ACV

The vehicle's most recent MOT test on 28 January 2026 at 157,545 miles passed, but with advisories for a severely deteriorated near-side front outer drive shaft joint constant velocity boot, corroded rear coil springs, and a minor oil leak. The test history shows a stable trend of recurring advisories for brake wear, suspension components, and minor leaks, with no significant worsening of defects. However, the frequent advisories for corroded rear coil springs and a severely deteriorated drive shaft joint boot suggest ongoing maintenance needs, particularly for the suspension and drivetrain. The mileage pattern is typical for a vehicle of this age, with roughly 8,752 miles per year. The MOT tests are spaced approximately 11 months apart, with no notable gaps or rapid mileage accumulation. The data is clean and consistent, with no evidence of significant neglect or sudden high-mileage spikes. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension and drivetrain components. The recurring advisories for corroded rear coil springs and a severely deteriorated near-side front outer drive shaft joint constant velocity boot indicate that these areas require attention. The frequent advisories for brake wear and minor leaks also warrant closer inspection. Additionally, the vehicle's exterior shows signs of minor damage, including a slightly damaged near-side rear door and front bumper, which should be checked for structural integrity. The exhaust system has had minor leaks in multiple tests, suggesting potential wear or loose connections. Finally, the front registration plate has been flagged as deteriorated but not likely to be misread, which may need replacement if it becomes more damaged.
