2006 Fiat Punto 1.2L Petrol · CX06 WVS

The Fiat Punto passed its most recent MOT on 28 April 2023 at 92,625 miles with no defects recorded, leaving it roadworthy on paper at that time. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle cleared its final test without advisories and showed no escalating faults across the supplied history. Recorded mileage sits at 92,625 against a 2006 build, averaging roughly 4,631 miles per year. The gap between the 26 April 2022 failure at 79,974 miles and the 27 April 2022 pass at 79,982 miles shows only eight miles covered, then 12,643 miles accumulated before the April 2023 tests. Low annual use suggests prolonged standing periods, which commonly accelerate rubber perishing and corrosion on unused components. The April 2023 entry shows a fail and pass on the same day at identical mileage with no defects logged, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. The same pattern occurred in April 2022 across a one-day, eight-mile window. No advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity appear in any test, so the record gives no evidence of worsening wear. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody corrosion, brake caliper condition, and tyre sidewall cracking given the car's age and low-use profile. Standing time hides damp-related issues that MOT passes without advisories will not reveal. Verify the duplicate same-day fail and pass entries with DVSA to confirm no omitted defect data before purchase.
