2014 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · BF64 NHZ

This 2014 Fiat 500 presents a stable and reassuring maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 24 February 2026 at 91,397 miles with zero defects recorded. The tester flagged no advisories or failures across any inspected system, including brakes, suspension, steering, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity. That result is not an isolated event. The vehicle has passed every recorded MOT since at least February 2023, and the pattern of consecutive clean passes indicates consistent mechanical upkeep rather than reactive, last-minute repairs ahead of test day. The mileage accumulation tells a coherent story. Between 23 February 2023 at 71,906 miles and 24 February 2026 at 91,397 miles, the car covered roughly 19,491 miles across three years, averaging approximately 6,500 miles annually. That figure sits comfortably within the typical range for a small city car of this age. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer record that would suggest long periods of disuse or tampering. The 2023 test at 71,906 miles represents the earliest data point available here, so wear-and-tear history before that date cannot be verified from this record alone. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should still conduct a thorough in-person inspection focused on areas the MOT does not continuously monitor. The Fiat 500 platform is known for premature wear on front suspension bushes, drop links, and anti-roll bar links, particularly on models used predominantly in urban stop-start driving. Check for uneven inner tyre wear, which can indicate tracking issues or worn steering components that may not always trigger a test failure. Inspect the underside for corrosion on the subframe, sills, and around the rear beam mounting points, as salt exposure during winter months can cause progressive structural deterioration that a single annual test may not catch between cycles. Examine the exhaust system for corrosion at flexi-joints and back box seams, and verify that the handbrake holds firmly on a gradient, since Fiat 500 rear calipers are prone to sticking. The clean MOT record is a strong positive indicator, but it is not a substitute for a pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic. A compression test, fluid condition check, and underbody inspection will reveal the kind of latent issues that annual testing intervals can miss.
