2018 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · FP18 AHU

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance record shows a worsening trend regarding wear-related components over time. The most recent test in November 2025 at 30,934 miles identified pitting and scoring on both front brake discs. This follows an advisory from October 2024 regarding worn front lower suspension arm bushes on both sides. While the car passes each inspection, the frequency of mechanical advisories suggests that components are beginning to degrade due to age rather than high mileage. At 30,934 miles over eight years, the car has been driven at an average of approximately 3,867 miles per year. This low usage profile is consistent across the timeline, showing a gap of roughly 5,000 miles between November 2024 and November 2025. However, low annual mileage often leads to surface corrosion on metal components that remain stationary, which explains the persistent pitting on the brake discs recorded in both the 2022 and 2025 tests. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the front braking system and suspension geometry. The recurring issues with the brake discs in 2022 and 2025 indicate the discs may be nearing the end of their effective life through oxidation. Additionally, the worn suspension arm bushes noted in 2024 require verification to ensure the wishbones have not developed excessive play, which would cause uneven tyre wear or steering instability. The tyres should also be checked for sidew damage, as the cuts and nails noted in 2022 suggest a history of physical impact.
