2018 Fiat 500X 1.6L Diesel · KV18 YMM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean MOT result on 3 March 2026 at 60,701 miles where no defects were recorded. This indicates an improving trend in maintenance standards following a minor fault in the previous year. The transition from a recorded defect to a clean pass suggests that the current owner is proactively addressing identified mechanical issues before they escalate into MOT test failures. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per annum. Between March 2021 at 17,375 miles and March 2026 at 60,701 miles, the car covered 43,326 miles, showing a steady pattern of use rather than long periods of stagnation or sudden spikes. This predictable usage reduces the likelihood of dry-rot damage to rubber components while keeping the drivetrain and suspension components from the excessive wear associated with high-mileage vehicles. A physical inspection should focus on the braking system and front geometry due to historical faults. The 2021 and 2022 tests both flagged tyres worn to the legal limit or on the edges, which often points to alignment issues or worn suspension bushes. Furthermore, the 2025 test identified pitted and scored rear inner brake discs; while the 2026 test was clean, a buyer should verify that these discs were actually replaced and that the rear calipers are not binding to ensure consistent braking performance.
