2012 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · EY12 YMR

The vehicle presents as a roadworthy asset with a highly stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 26 February 2026 at 69,239 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, despite a preliminary failure on the same day which listed no faults, likely an administrative error or a minor immediate rectify that was resolved on the spot. The car has consistently met all pass criteria across the last three annual cycles. The mileage profile is notably low for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. Data shows consistent usage patterns between June 2023 at 55,486 miles and March 2025 at 63,611 miles, representing a gap of 8,125 miles followed by another 5,628 miles prior to the February 2026 test. This low annual mileage suggests reduced wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components and seals due to periods of inactivity. Despite the clean record of advisories, a buyer should inspect the vehicle for specific issues common to low-mileage older Fiats. Focus on structural corrosion on the rear sills and wheel arches, as moisture often traps in these areas regardless of mileage. Check the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or perish, as age affects rubber more than mileage does. Additionally, verify the brake discs for pitting or corrosion, which frequently occurs when vehicles sit stationary for long periods between tests.
