2018 Fiat 124 1.4L Petrol · DS18 ADU

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 9 June 2025 at 80,109 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the last three years, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the age of the vehicle. Between the June 2023 test at 52,820 miles and the June 2024 test at 66,674 miles, the car covered 13,854 miles. The subsequent year saw a slight increase in usage, adding 13,435 miles by June 2025. This steady usage pattern avoids the risks associated with long periods of standing, such as perished seals or seized brake calipers. The absence of advisories across the 2023, 2024, and 2025 tests is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. While the record is clean, a buyer should still physically inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for fatigue, as these components typically show wear around the 80,000-mile mark. Checking the brake discs for lip wear and the exhaust system for corrosion is advisable, as the MOT history provides no evidence of these common wear items being flagged. The record shows two instances where the vehicle failed and passed on the same day in 2024 and 2025. Since no specific defects were listed for these failures, they likely relate to minor administrative errors or immediate on-site rectifications of consumable items. A physical inspection should focus on the chassis and underbody to ensure no structural corrosion has been overlooked, as the DVSA record is exceptionally sparse regarding typical aging issues.
