2013 Fiat Fiorino 1.2L Diesel · GF13 FVY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach. While the most recent test in July 2025 at 95,119 miles passed, it revealed several minor advisories including an inoperative registration lamp and tyre damage. The history shows a failure in May 2024 for critical front brake components and worn tyres, suggesting that the owner only addressed mechanical faults once they reached a failure threshold rather than during routine service intervals. At 95,119 miles over 13 years, the Fiorino averages approximately 7,300 miles per year, which is consistent with light commercial or domestic use. There is a notable gap in the records between December 2021 and March 2023, where the vehicle covered only 4,000 miles. Since the May 2024 failure, the vehicle has covered nearly 7,000 miles in just single year, indicating a return to regular usage patterns that explain the accelerated wear on the front tyres and brakes noted during those tests. A buyer must inspect the front suspension geometry closely, as the tester flagged noise from both top strut mountings during lock-to-lock steering in 2024. This often indicates worn bearings or perished rubber that may require replacement. The recurring issue of inner-edge tyre wear across the 2023 and 2024 tests suggests a persistent alignment problem or worn shock absorbers that have not been properly rectified despite the MOT advisories. The battery mounting has been flagged as insecure since at least 2021. While the tester noted it was unlikely to fall from the carrier, a loose battery can cause terminal damage or electrical vibration issues over time. Given the recent cut in the offside rear tyre recorded in 2025, the structural integrity of all remaining rubber should be verified to ensure no damage has progressed beyond the cords.
