2009 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · AV09 HCG

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on 18 March 2025 at 109,257 miles with no defects recorded. This result indicates that the car met all minimum safety and environmental standards during that inspection. The history of failures in February 2024 and February 2025 followed by immediate passes suggests that any mechanical issues were identified and rectified promptly by the owner rather than indicating a trend of ongoing mechanical neglect. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 109,257 miles represents an annual average of approximately 6,427 miles, which aligns with typical light usage for a small city car. The data shows consistent use over the years, with 5,286 miles covered between February 2023 and February 2024, and another 8,137 miles between February 2024 and March 2025. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to long periods of standing, which often leads to degradation of rubber components, seals, and fuel components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the sills, wheel arches, and floor pans, as Fiat 500 models of this era are prone to corrosion. While the MOT record is clean of advisories, the age of the vehicle necessitates a close look at suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perished rubber. Given the previous failures prior to passing, verifying the condition of the brake discs and the absence of binding calipers is advisable to ensure the repairs made during those periods remain effective.
