2018 Fiat Fiorino 1.4L Petrol · CU68 FHP

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT test on 20 July 2026 with no defects recorded. The overall maintenance trend is highly stable, characterized by a consistent history of passes and a notable absence of recurring mechanical failures. The lack of structural corrosion or significant defects over the last five years suggests a vehicle that has been kept in good condition and has not been subjected to heavy commercial abuse. The recorded mileage of 35,033 miles is remarkably low for an eight year old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,379 miles per year. While this indicates minimal wear on the engine internals and drivetrain, such low usage often suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary or has been used for short, urban journeys. This usage profile can be more taxing on certain components than consistent motorway mileage, potentially leading to carbon buildup in the exhaust system or the degradation of rubber seals and gaskets. Although the 2024 advisories regarding the offside front tyre and thin front brake pads have been cleared in subsequent tests, a prospective buyer should still conduct a thorough physical inspection of all consumables. Given the low mileage, it is essential to check the tyre sidewalls for perishing or hairline cracking, as rubber degrades with age regardless of tread depth. During the test drive, the buyer should listen for suspension clunks and feel for any brake shudder or binding calipers, which can occur when a vehicle is left standing for extended periods. Particular attention should be given to the service records to verify that oil and filter changes have been carried out according to calendar intervals rather than mileage alone, as fluid degradation occurs over time. The health of the 12V battery should be verified, as low-use vehicles are prone to premature battery failure. Finally, a visual inspection of the underbody is recommended to ensure that no surface corrosion has developed from damp storage, ensuring the long term structural integrity of the chassis.
