2018 Fiat 500 1.6L Petrol · FD18 EZM

The vehicle presents as currently roadworthy following a clean pass in the April 2026 test at 74,373 miles. The maintenance trend appears to be improving, moving from consumable wear issues in previous years to a defect-free status in the most recent inspection. While the record shows a history of minor advisories, the lack of any failures or recurring mechanical defects suggests the vehicle has been maintained sufficiently to meet legal standards. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,300 miles per year. The data shows a steady progression from 33,891 miles in April 2022 to 74,373 miles in April 2026. This regular interval of use suggests the car has not suffered from long periods of inactivity, which helps mitigate risks associated with seized components or perished rubber seals often found in low-usage vehicles. A buyer should focus physical inspections on the braking system and tyres. The April 2025 test at 63,166 miles flagged both front and rear brake pads as wearing thin, though the 2026 result indicates these were likely replaced or adjusted. Similarly, the 2022 and 2024 tests highlighted issues with tyre wear and perishing. Although the most recent MOT shows no tyre advisories, the history of uneven wear and sidewall cracking suggests the buyer should check the current tread depth and condition of all four tyres to ensure they are not nearing the legal limit or showing signs of age-related degradation.
