2016 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · HS16 JXP

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean passes over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 29 July 2025 at 20,810 miles showed no defects or advisories. This indicates a remarkably stable maintenance trend where the vehicle has avoided the common mechanical failures or structural degradations typically seen in older urban-focused cars like this Fiat. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,081 miles per annum. Between 2021 and July 2025, the car covered only 5,676 miles, suggesting very light use or significant periods of storage. The intervals between tests are regular, with the 1,535 miles driven between the 2024 and 2025 tests showing consistent usage patterns. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it often introduces specific risks associated with vehicles that do not undergo regular motion. Despite the clean MOT record, an in-person inspection must focus on components affected by long periods of inactivity. A buyer should check for seized brake calipers or rusted brake lines which can occur when a car sits stationary for extended months. The rubber suspension bushes and split should be inspected for perished or cracking, as these materials age by time rather than by mileage. Additionally, the tyres should be checked for flat spotting or sidew rot, as low tread depth often masks age degradation of the rubber compound.
