1996 Fiat Hymer 2.5L Diesel · BAZ 3032

The 1996 Fiat Hymer presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 29 March 2026 at 220,849 miles with no defects recorded. Prior tests in March 2025 at 217,743 miles and August 2023 at 216,763 miles also returned clean passes. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across its documented history, indicating consistent statutory compliance over the last four years. Recorded mileage sits at 220,849 against an approximate 30-year lifespan, averaging 7,362 miles per year which is typical for this vehicle class. The gap between the August 2022 pass at 216,129 miles and the August 2023 test shows only 634 miles accrued, suggesting a period of limited use. A failed test on 16 August 2022 at 216,101 miles was followed by a pass three days later at 216,129 miles with no defects listed on either entry, pointing to an administrative or minor rectification rather than substantive mechanical failure. Given the sparse and clean record, a buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion on the chassis and underbody, as the MOT history contains no advisories that would reveal hidden rust on a 30-year-old motorhome. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs warrant hands-on checks for age-related fatigue not captured in the pass results. The low annual mileage and clean test sequence imply the previous keeper maintained basic statutory upkeep, though the 2022 fail-pass pair within days suggests a lapse in preparation rather than neglect. Verify service history independently and probe for drivetrain wear given the high total mileage before committing to purchase.
