2011 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · GL60 ENU

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness based on its recent MOT history, with no defects recorded in the last three consecutive tests. The 2026-03-12 inspection at 87,736 miles confirmed compliance, and prior tests from 2025-03-14 and 2024-06-28 also passed without issues. While a failed test occurred on 2024-06-17 at 84,921 miles, no defects were logged, suggesting an administrative or procedural error. The absence of recurring mechanical faults in the last 18 months indicates consistent maintenance, though the single failure warrants cautious scrutiny. The vehicle’s mileage of 87,736 miles over 15 years equates to approximately 5,849 annual miles, significantly below average for its age. This low usage may reflect infrequent operation or prolonged storage, which can lead to component degradation not typically associated with higher-mileage vehicles. A notable gap exists between the 2023-06-16 test (80,224 miles) and the 2024-06-17 failure, spanning 12 months with 4,700 miles recorded. This period lacks subsequent MOT data until 2024-06-28, raising questions about potential unrecorded issues or maintenance. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, which may degrade from inactivity. The absence of brake-related defects in recent tests is reassuring, but older vehicles with low mileage sometimes develop binding calipers or corroded brake discs. Structural integrity should also be assessed, as prolonged storage can accelerate rust in underbody components. No advisories or corrosion issues were noted in the record, but physical verification of these areas is essential to confirm the vehicle’s condition aligns with its MOT history.
