2020 Fiat Roller Team 2.3L Diesel · CU20 ANR

This Fiat Roller Team has maintained a consistent MOT pass record across three consecutive tests, with the most recent inspection on 6 May 2025—just over two years ago—showing no defects and a clean bill of health. The absence of advisories or recurring faults in the 2023, 2024, or 2025 tests suggests the vehicle has been kept in a stable condition mechanically, though the low mileage means wear items like brake pads, suspension bushes, and tyres have had minimal use. The lack of any advisory notes also implies that previous owners did not overlook critical components such as exhaust emissions, steering play, or structural integrity during these intervals. The recorded mileage of 10,369 miles over six years—approximately 1,728 miles annually—is unusually low for a vehicle of this age, indicating either light usage or prolonged periods of inactivity. The gaps between tests (around 12 months each) align with the standard MOT cycle, but the minimal mileage accumulation between 2023 and 2024 (906 miles in 12 months) and again between 2024 and 2025 (594 miles) raises questions about storage conditions. Extended periods of low use can accelerate degradation in tyres, battery health, and suspension components due to static load and lack of movement. Given the clean MOT history, a prospective buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of consumable parts that may have deteriorated despite low mileage. Tyres, though not flagged in tests, should be checked for uneven wear or dry-rotting, particularly if the vehicle has stood for long periods. The brakes—never a concern in past tests—should be examined for binding calipers, warped discs, or excessive pad wear, as even low-mileage vehicles can develop issues from corrosion or lack of use. Suspension bushes and coil springs, while unlikely to have failed given the stable MOTs, warrant inspection for cracking or excessive play, especially if the vehicle has been stored on uneven surfaces. Finally, the battery and electrical connections should be tested, as prolonged inactivity can lead to corrosion or a weakened charge.
