2015 Fiat 500X 1.4L Petrol · DK65 GXD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a persistent failure to address developing mechanical defects. The most recent test in December 2025 at 82,623 miles resulted in a failure due to a blown offside front position lamp and the previously noted leaking nearside rear shock absorber. While the lamp was rectified to secure a pass, the shock absorber leak has remained an advisory since at least December 2024, indicating a known component failure that is being ignored by the previous owner. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year. Between November 2022 at 55,524 miles and December 2025 at 82,623 miles, the car covered roughly 27,000 miles, representing a steady rate of use. This suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to high-intensity stress, but the age-related natural degradation of rubber components and seals is a primary factor evident in the record. A buyer must specifically inspect the nearside rear suspension to determine if the light misting has progressed to a significant leak which would require immediate replacement. The record also notes a non-excessive oil leak appearing in both 2022 and 2023, which warrants a physical inspection of the engine seals and sump pan to ensure the leak is not worsening. Furthermore, the 2022 advisories regarding uneven tyre wear on the edges suggest a history of alignment issues or neglected pressures, necessitating a check of the current tyre condition and suspension bushings for signs of wear.
