2012 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · CV12 GXY

The 2012 Fiat 500 presents as roadworthy following a pass at 93,541 miles on 5 March 2026, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The most recent test showed no defects, though a failed test on 27 February 2026 at 93,343 miles listed no defects, indicating an administrative or undocumented rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Prior annual tests in March 2025, February 2024, and February 2023 all passed cleanly with no advisories, showing consistent test performance over the last four years. Recorded mileage rose from 66,314 in February 2023 to 78,907 in February 2024, then to 90,934 by March 2025 and 93,541 by March 2026. That equates to roughly 12,000 miles in the first interval and near-typical annual use thereafter, averaging about 6,682 miles per year across the car's fourteen-year life. The sparse but clean record gives no evidence of rapid accumulation or long idle periods, though the lack of advisories means worn consumables such as tyres, brake discs, and suspension bushes were either replaced pre-test or remained within limits. A buyer should still verify in person the condition of suspension components and brake calipers, as the MOT data offers no visibility of wear beneath the pass threshold. The unexplained fail in February 2026 warrants a check of the DVSA refusal reason, since no defects were logged yet the vehicle required a retest eight days later. Structural integrity and exhaust emissions showed no corrosion or leakage flags across the record, suggesting the bodyshell and powertrain have been kept to a reasonable standard for a city car of this age.
