2009 Fiat 500 1.2L Diesel · FE09 UDB

The vehicle currently presents as a roadworthy asset, following a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 4 October 2025 at 102,237 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the mechanical and structural components met the minimum legal standards. While the history shows instances of failure, the subsequent clean passes suggest that the previous owner was proactive in addressing identified faults immediately during the testing process. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 17-year-old city car, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. Between October 2023 and October 2024, the vehicle covered 4,551 miles, followed by a sharper increase in usage with 10,480 miles recorded in the following year. This relatively low annual mileage relative to the vehicle's age suggests the car has not been subjected to high-stress motorway driving, which typically reduces the wear on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and brake assemblies. The recorded failures in October 2023 and October 2024 occurred within days of the successful passes, suggesting the issues were minor rectifyable items rather than systemic mechanical failures. Because the record does not show recurring advisories for structural corrosion or fluid leaks, a buyer should still focus their physical inspection on common Fiat 500 vulnerabilities, such as rust on the rear sills and floor mounting points. Check the condition of the suspension arms and the integrity of the rubber boots, as these are the primary areas likely to degrade on vehicles of this mileage profile.
