2018 Fiat 500L 1.2L Diesel · DS18 ABF

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on June 3, 2025, at 94,420 miles passed with no recorded defects, following a failure just a few days prior at 94,352 miles. This suggests the previous owner was willing to rectify any minor issues immediately to ensure compliance, and the vehicle has since maintained a clean record without advisories across the last two testing cycles. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,800 miles per year. Between May 2023 at 50,658 miles and May 2024 at 72,607 miles, the car covered over 22,000 miles, indicating a period of high-intensity use. The subsequent interval of 21,813 miles covered between the 2024 and 2025 tests shows a sustained workload, which generally helps prevent seal degradation and component seizing associated with long periods of inactivity. While the history shows no recurring mechanical advisories, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension components and braking system. Given the mileage is approaching 95,000 miles, checking for wear on control arm bushes and coil springs is advisable as these parts often reach the end of their life at this interval. Inspection of brake discs and pads is also warranted, as the MOT record does not track pad thickness or surface corrosion unless a functional failure occurs.
