2018 Fiat Fiorino 1.2L Diesel · BW18 HMY

The vehicle presents an inconsistent maintenance history that suggests a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. While the most recent recorded MOT test in August 2022 at 48,053 miles was a pass, it followed a significant failure that highlighted multiple mechanical and safety defects. The lack of any MOT records for the past four years up to the current date of June 2026 means the roadworthiness of the vehicle is currently unknown and it is likely operating out of compliance with UK testing regulations. At 48,053 miles over eight years, the Fiorino has averaged approximately 6,000 miles per year, which is consistent with light commercial or urban-based usage. However, the data shows a significant gap of 12,000 miles between the July 2021 test at 36,070 miles and the August 2022 test at 48,053 miles. This period of higher-frequency use often leads to the accelerated degradation of rubber-based components and brake hardware, especially given the low overall mileage of the vehicle. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and braking system. The July 2022 failure flagged an excessively rough strut mounting on the nearside front and severely worn brake pads with pitted discs. These issues indicate that the vehicle was driven with components at the point of functional failure, which can lead to secondary damage. Furthermore, the history of tyres failing for tread depth and edge wear in 2022 suggests potential alignment issues or incorrect pressures that should be re-verified on the current set. The inoperative engine management light noted in July 2022 is a critical concern as it can mask underlying engine or emissions-related faults. Since the vehicle has not been tested in four years, the state of the exhaust system, battery health, and the structural integrity of the chassis remains speculative. Particular attention should be paid to the reversing lamp circuit and headlamp alignment, as these were recurring failure points in previous tests, indicating a lapse in basic electrical and lighting adjustments.
