AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2016 Fiat 500X presents a stable roadworthiness trend with a current valid pass recorded on 3 July 2025 at 43,981 miles. The most recent test cycle shows a pass and a separate failure logged on the same date and mileage with no defects recorded, an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior annual tests in July 2024, June 2023, and June 2022 all passed with no advisories, confirming no worsening condition across the visible history. Annual mileage sits at roughly 4,400 miles against a ten-year life, a low-use profile. The odometer moved from 29,736 miles in June 2022 to 34,391 in June 2023, then 39,540 in July 2024, and 43,981 by July 2025. The increments of about 4,600 to 4,800 miles per year are consistent and show no standing gaps or sudden accumulation. The clean sheet across every entry means the DVSA data gives no evidence of deferred consumable replacement or ignored structural corrosion. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and low but regular use. Long idle periods between short trips can encourage surface corrosion on brake components and underbody structures even when the MOT shows clear. The same-day fail with no defects suggests a data-entry or presentation error at the testing station rather than a fault, but the V5C and test certificate should be checked to confirm the active pass is the live result. No recurring advisories appear for tyres, exhaust emissions, or steering joints, so previous owners kept the car to a basic pass standard. Given the sparse but clean record, a pre-purchase check of structural integrity at chassis weld points and a road test for binding calipers remains sensible due diligence before completion.
