2013 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · AF63 VGE

The 2013 Fiat 500 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 2 September 2025 at 65,500 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from 2022 to 2024 also returned passes with no advisories. The vehicle shows no worsening faults and no recurring mechanical or structural concerns across the available record. Mileage sits low for a thirteen-year-old car at 65,500 recorded miles, averaging roughly 5,038 miles per year. The DVSA entries show steady, light use: 51,698 miles on 19 August 2022, 54,142 miles on 14 August 2023, 59,020 miles on 6 September 2024, and 65,500 miles on 2 September 2025. A single anomalous failure appears on 14 August 2023 at 54,142 miles, logged the same day as a pass with no defects cited, which suggests an administrative retest rather than a genuine fault. The clean, sparse history gives no evidence of skipped upkeep or abrupt wear cycles. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clear MOT trail. Low annual mileage and possible periods of standing can allow corrosion to develop on sills, subframes, and suspension mounting points even when testers logged no advisories. Check brake discs and calipers for surface pitting from inactivity, and verify suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing. Given the Fiat 500's age, examine the exhaust system and emissions hardware for degradation, and confirm tyre sidewalls are free from cracking after low-use storage. The record implies a carefully kept, lightly driven vehicle, but in-person checks on structural integrity and consumables remain prudent before purchase.
