2012 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · J6 MEF

The vehicle holds a roadworthy status as of the latest examination on 1 September 2025 at 53,250 miles, where the tester recorded a pass with no defects. Maintenance trend stays stable across the supplied history, with annual tests from August 2022 through September 2025 returning clears aside from a single anomalous failure promptly reversed. The clean advisory sheet signals consistent attention to required standards. Mileage sits low for a 2012 registration, averaging near 3,800 miles per year. Distances climb from 43,434 miles at the 17 August 2022 test to 46,651 by 7 September 2023, then 50,369 on 5 September 2024 and 53,250 at the final 2025 check. Such gentle annual increments point to light urban use. The record shows a fail on 6 September 2023 at 46,644 miles with no defects listed, followed by a pass the next day at 46,651 miles; this negligible mileage gap suggests a procedural or documentation irregularity rather than mechanical fault, yet previous owner diligence in retesting immediately kept the chain unbroken. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the shell. Aged Fiat 500 models with long standing periods often hide degraded suspension bushes and snapped coil springs not caught by a bare MOT. Check brake discs and calipers for binding or corrosion, scrutinise sills and subframes for structural rust, and measure exhaust emissions on a cold start. The absence of recorded advisories implies the keeper corrected wear before each test, but service invoices must confirm that the clean MOT reflects genuine upkeep rather than minimal pre-test preparation.
