2018 Fiat 124 1.4L Petrol · BW18 ONV

The 2018 FIAT 124 has a solid roadworthiness rating overall, as the MOT record demonstrates a consistent, improving trend through the test dates from May 2023 to May 2026. The vehicle passed its initial check in 2026 with 23,628 miles, followed by a steady progression through subsequent checks in 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022, with no recorded defects or failures. This trajectory indicates that the car has maintained a high level of mechanical soundness and that the maintenance history is stable, rather than showing signs of a deteriorating condition or a recurring pattern of failure. The mileage data supports a low maintenance profile for an 8-year-old vehicle, as the 23,628 miles recorded in the 2026 test represent approximately 2,954 miles per year, which is significantly lower than the typical 3,000+ miles required for this age group. This low mileage suggests that the owner may have maintained the car with minimal wear on consumables, suspension components, or the drivetrain, or that the vehicle has been used less frequently than its age warrants. The gap between the 2026 test and the 2022 test is negligible, confirming that the vehicle has remained in good condition over the past four years without any sudden acceleration of wear on critical systems. Given the absence of defects and the lack of evidence of structural or consumable degradation, the 2018 FIAT 124 is in good condition for a used buyer. However, the buyer should verify the condition of the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components themselves, as the MOT record alone cannot confirm the health of these specific parts. A physical inspection is required to rule out minor issues such as binding brakes, worn suspension bushes, or structural rust that may have been missed during the MOT. The car's history confirms a stable maintenance trend, but final safety and drivability depend on the verified mechanical condition of the vehicle's body and drivetrain.
