2017 Fiat Auto Trail 2.3L Diesel · DX67 AVU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean mechanical record over the last two years. The most recent test in August 2025 at 19,224 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the previous mechanical issues have been addressed and resolved. This follows a clean pass in 2024, suggesting the car is currently maintained to a high operational standard despite its age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,136 miles per year. This low usage is evident in the progression between tests, such as the 2,517 miles covered between 2023 and 2024 and the 3,038 miles covered between 2024 and 2025. While this reduces mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, such infrequent use can often lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluids due to time rather than mechanical stress. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to perishation in low-use vehicles. The failure in 2023 at 13,659 miles highlighted perished outer sidewalls on both rear tyres, a classic sign of vehicle sitting stationary for long periods. The current tyres should be checked for cracking or flat spotting regardless of tread depth. Additionally, the 2021 failure for excessive parking brake lever movement suggests the braking system may require regular adjustment or inspection to ensure cables and mechanisms have not seized or corroded from lack of use.
