2013 Fiat Punto 1.2L Petrol · GD04 MCC

The 2013 Fiat Punto holds a valid roadworthy pass as confirmed by the 21 November 2025 examination at 46,739 miles, with the tester logging no defects. Across the five recorded tests from November 2023 to November 2025 the mechanical trend stays stable. The two failed entries dated 20 November 2025 at 46,737 miles and 18 November 2024 at 45,678 miles both show no defects recorded, pointing to administrative or presentation issues rather than worsening condition. No advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion appear at any stage. Odometer readings trace a low-use profile for a thirteen-year-old hatchback. The car covered 42,988 miles at the 24 November 2023 pass, rose to 45,679 miles by the 19 November 2024 pass, then reached 46,739 miles at the final 2025 test. That equates to roughly 2,691 miles in the first interval and only 1,060 miles in the second, a declining annual distance well below the 3,595-mile yearly average implied by the total. Such light mileage coupled with the clean record suggests careful short-distance ownership, though sparse testing leaves gaps between November each year. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of age-sensitive components that MOT sheets omit when no defect triggers a flag. Low mileage and likely periods of standing elevate risk of perished rubber in suspension bushes, tired coil springs, and superficial corrosion on structural members despite the absence of advisories. The tester noted no binding calipers or exhaust emissions concerns, but brake discs and calipers warrant hands-on check for seizing after limited use. Verify the precise cause of the two no-defect fails via DVSA history to rule out number-plate or lighting presentation errors. The repeated same-day fail-and-pass cycles imply the previous keeper booked tests prematurely, possibly ahead of sale or tax renewal, yet committed to rectifying any procedural gap immediately. This pattern alongside zero recorded defects indicates a vehicle spared heavy wear but needing scrutiny for intermittent-use ailments such as degraded tyres or wiper blades from age rather than mileage.
