2018 Fiat 124 1.4L Petrol · HT18 HUO

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, as evidenced by the clean MOT pass recorded on 15 May 2026 at 29,839 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable and improving, particularly following a minor mechanical failure in 2025 which was immediately rectified. The absence of advisories in the two most recent tests suggests that the previous owner is responsive to addressing flagged faults as they are identified. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,730 miles per year. Between May 2023 and May 2026, the car covered 7,531 miles, indicating consistent but short-distance use rather than long periods of neglect. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine-related components, it can sometimes lead to secondary issues like flat-spotted tyres or degradation of rubber seals if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods between trips. A prospective buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the front suspension and braking system based on the May 2024 test at 26,547 miles. That test flagged thin front brake pads and a slightly distorted nearside front road wheel. While these are common consumable items, the buyer should ensure the wheel distortion has not caused vibration at higher speeds and that the brake discs show no uneven wear. Additionally, although the washer jets were repaired in 2025, a quick check of the fluid pump and lines will confirm no persistent leaks or blockages remain in the system.
