2012 Fiat 500 0.9L Petrol · AX61 DFV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT history. The test conducted on November 10, 2023 at 71,095 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car met all minimum safety and emission standards at that time. This follows a period of clean passes since 2021, suggesting that the owner has maintained the vehicle sufficiently to avoid recurring mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is notably low for a fourteen-year-old car, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. The data shows periods of limited use, for instance, between February 2021 and February 2022, the car covered only 2,134 miles. A brief spike in activity occurred in early February 2022 when the vehicle failed a test but passed later that same day at 65,924 miles. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluid seals due to inactivity. While the record is clean of advisories, a buyer must inspect for specific issues common to low-mileage aging vehicles. Focus on flat-spotted tyres, perished rubber, and seized brake calipers which can result from the car sitting for extended periods. Check the chassis for surface corrosion around the sills and floor pans, as the MOT record does not show past structural rust issues. Since the last test was over two years ago, a fresh inspection is now essential to ensure no mechanical faults have developed in the interim.
