2019 Abarth 595 1.4L Petrol · GL68 SVN

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status, having a clean pass in its most recent inspection in January 2026 at 39,392 miles. This result indicates an improvement over the previous year, as the defects identified in earlier tests have been successfully rectified. The absence of any advisories on the latest record suggests that the current owner is proactive in addressing minor mechanical and safety issues before they escalate into significant failure points. At seven years old, the recorded 39,392 miles represent an average annual usage of approximately 5,600 miles, which is significantly below the national average. The mileage data shows a notable gap in testing frequency between December 2022 and May 2024, during which the car covered only 2,764 miles. While low mileage generally implies less wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, the intermittent nature of use can lead to age-related degradation of rubber components, as evidenced by the perishing-related issues noted in the 2025 test. A buyer should specifically inspect the condition of the tyres, as the 2025 test at 33,974 miles flagged both rear tyres for perishing and damage close to the cords. This suggests the vehicle may sit stationary for extended periods, causing the rubber to dry out despite having sufficient tread depth. Additionally, the uneven wear noted in late 2022, where front tyres were found worn on the edge, indicates a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that should be verified to ensure no premature wear occurs on new tyres.
