2010 Fiat Punto 1.4L Petrol · CV60 XGS

The Fiat Punto presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 2 October 2025 at 104,304 miles, where the tester recorded no defects and issued a pass. The maintenance trend is stable, with the only blemish being a failed test on 26 September 2025 at the same mileage, also showing no defects recorded. This suggests an administrative or presentation issue at that prior attempt rather than a mechanical fault, and the vehicle cleared cleanly six days later. At roughly 16 years old the Punto carries 104,304 miles, equating to about 6,519 miles per year, which is typical for its age and implies steady rather than abusive use. The records show 93,363 miles on 15 January 2024, rising to 99,495 by 3 September 2024 and 104,304 by September 2025, a consistent annual accumulation of around 5,000 to 5,800 miles with no sudden jumps. The sparse history shows only two failed entries, both with no defects logged, and no advisories across any test, so the DVSA data alone gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points, as a 2010 hatchback of this mileage commonly develops rust at sills and suspension mounting areas not always caught in a pass. The brake discs, calipers, and suspension bushes warrant physical checks despite the clean record, since the MOT only samples condition on the day. The twin 2024-01-15 entries at 93,363 and 93,365 miles, one fail and one pass, hint at a possible re-test the same day, but with no defects noted the previous owner appears to have maintained basic compliance. Given the absence of recorded advisories across five years of tests, the vehicle shows no worsening mechanical trend. The repeated no-defect results indicate the keeper addressed test requirements promptly, though the 2025 failure with no faults listed deserves clarification from the seller as to whether it was a documentation error or omitted item.
