Our Verdict
Proceed with caution given the age and t
When inspecting this vehicle, prioritise checking the suspension components, specifically the rear shock absorber bushes, as these were flagged as excessively worn in the 2022 MOT failure. Ensure there is no knocking or uneven handling during a test drive, as these bushes can be a common point of degradation on commercial vehicles of this age.
Furthermore, verify the condition of the braking system. While the brake discs and pads were noted as worn in 2022, you should confirm if these have been replaced since that date. Check for any documentation or receipts that evidence recent maintenance, as the MOT record only confirms the vehicle met the minimum safety standards at the time of the last test.
As a 1.3-litre diesel, this Fiorino is designed for efficiency, though real-world fuel economy will depend heavily on the load carried and driving style. You should factor in the cost of VED (Road Tax) based on the vehicle's CO2 emissions, which are typically moderate for this engine variant.
Maintenance costs for a 2014 van can be unpredictable. Beyond standard servicing, budget for potential suspension and tyre replacements, as these are common wear items for the Fiorino. Expect an estimated annual running cost of £1,200-£1,500, covering fuel, insurance, tax, and routine maintenance.
Inspect the rear shock absorbers closely for any signs of leaking fluid or perished rubber bushes, as these were identified as failure points in the 2022 MOT. Additionally, check the condition of all tyres, including the spare, ensuring they have adequate tread depth and no signs of perishing or sidewall damage, which was previously an issue.
Test all exterior lighting, specifically the rear stop lamps, to ensure they are fully functional. Finally, perform a visual check of the front brake discs and pads to ensure they are not currently worn, pitted, or scored, as these components were previously flagged during the MOT process.
This 2014 Fiat Fiorino has covered approximately 72,000 miles since its first registration in March 2014. The MOT history shows a failure in June 2022 due to multiple issues, including suspension and lighting faults, which were subsequently rectified to achieve a pass shortly after. Given the vehicle's age, potential buyers should be aware of the wear-and-tear items highlighted in recent test records.
There is no specific aggregate reliability data available for the Fiat Fiorino, so buyers should rely on individual inspection and the vehicle's specific MOT history.
