2012 Fiat 500 C 0.9L Petrol · CT12 AWM

The 2012 FIAT 500 C presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass on 11 November 2025 at 96,044 miles. The most recent test recorded zero defects, indicating the vehicle currently meets all required roadworthiness standards. This clean bill of health suggests the owner has addressed any prior concerns and maintained the car to a competent standard recently. The vehicle has covered roughly 6,860 miles per year, which is typical for a 14-year-old city car. Between January 2023 at 77,377 miles and February 2024 at 88,556 miles, the car accumulated just over 11,000 miles in a twelve-month period. Mileage accumulation then slowed slightly, with around 7,500 miles added between February 2024 and November 2025. The testing frequency increased in 2025, with two tests occurring within nine months, though the recorded mileage remained static at 96,044 miles for the most recent test, suggesting limited use over the last eight months. The MOT record contains no recurring faults or flagged structural defects to guide a targeted inspection, though the anomaly on 9 February 2024 warrants attention. The vehicle failed with zero defects recorded before passing on the same day at the same mileage, a pattern that typically indicates an aborted test or administrative error rather than a mechanical failure. Nevertheless, a buyer should physically inspect the structural integrity of the sills and floor pans, as corrosion is a common affliction for the 500 C. At nearly 96,000 miles, standard wear items require scrutiny. A pre-purchase inspection should evaluate the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration, check the brake discs and calipers for scoring or binding, and assess the exhaust system for leaks or corrosion.
