2021 Fiat 500L 1.4L Petrol · KX71 HCA

Most recent MOT outcome (19 Nov 2025 – PASS) The car passed its latest MOT at 29,843 mi, but the examiner recorded two “slightly damaged/cracking or perishing” comments on the nearside and off‑side front tyres. That is the only defect noted for the current test. Recurring pattern The only repeatable issue in the record is tyre condition – both front tyres are now flagged as showing early signs of cracking. The earlier 2024 MOT shows a separate, isolated fault (a missing off‑side wiper blade) that was corrected and did not reappear. Trend assessment Overall the MOT history is clean apart from the tyre warnings. The trend is therefore stable , with the only emerging concern being the front tyre wear. There is no evidence of worsening mechanical or safety systems beyond the tyres. Mileage versus age At roughly 5,970 mi per year, the 2021 FIAT 500L has been driven well below the typical UK average (≈10‑12 k mi/yr). Low mileage can mean lighter use, but it can also indicate long periods of inactivity, which sometimes accelerates tyre cracking as rubber ages without regular flexing. The mileage figure alone does not tell us whether the car has been hard‑used or largely idle, so we should treat it as ambiguous.
