2015 Fiat Punto 1.2L Petrol · CV15 UAW

The 2015 Fiat Punto presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 29 May 2025 at 85,099 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from May 2022 through June 2023 also passed clean. The only blemish is a failed entry logged on 27 May 2022 at 54,211 miles, which the DVSA record shows with no defects cited; the same-day retest passed, indicating the failure was administrative or a minor non-mechanical matter cleared without recorded repair. Annual mileage averages 7,736 against an 11-year lifespan, a typical figure for this age of supermini. The odometer moved from 54,211 in May 2022 to 62,559 by June 2023, then 72,302 in May 2024 and 85,099 in May 2025. That is steady yearly use of roughly 9,000 to 12,800 miles, with no standing gaps or sudden accumulation spikes. The history is sparse on advisories, showing no corrosion, suspension bush wear, brake disc scoring, or exhaust emission concerns across the timeline. A clean MOT sequence with zero advisories does not guarantee absence of wear, only that the tester found nothing reportable on the day. The buyer should still inspect the front coil springs and suspension bushes for micro-cracking, check brake calipers for binding after a road test, and examine the subframe and sills for structural rust given the car's age. The 2022 same-day fail-retest with no defects warrants a glance at the V5C and any test station notes to confirm it was not a withdrawn or mislogged examination. Given the record shows no recurring mechanical faults, the Punto's upkeep appears competent rather than neglected. Previous owners kept it to a consistent annual test cycle with passes. Verify service history and tyre condition in person, as consumables like tread depth and wiper blades fall outside MOT failure thresholds until worn bare.
