2013 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · AV13 CSZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent MOT on January 7 2026 with 90,358 miles. While the record shows a failure one day prior at the same mileage, the lack of recorded defects suggests an administrative error or a minor item that was rectified immediately. The absence of advisories in the 2024 and 2026 tests indicates that the vehicle has maintained its operational standards without significant mechanical degradation or structural failures. At 90,358 miles over 13 years, the car has averaged approximately 7,000 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage patterns for a small city car. The data shows a consistent usage trend, with roughly 4,000 miles covered between June 2022 and February 2024, and another 2,100 miles in the period leading up to the January 2026 test. This regular interval suggests the vehicle is used regularly rather than sitting for long periods, which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and rubber components and preventing fluid stagnation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the common wear points for this era of Fiat 500, despite the clean MOT history. Given the age and mileage, check for surface corrosion on the rear sills and floor pans, as these areas often fail before mechanical components do. Inspect the suspension bushes for signs of tearing and examine the brake discs for uneven wear. Since the vehicle is approaching 100,000 miles, verify if the timing belt and water pump have been replaced according to manufacturer schedules, as these typically require attention around this interval to prevent catastrophic engine failure.
