2009 Fiat Grande Punto 1.4L Petrol · LC59 EFB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a period of consistent maintenance. The most recent inspection conducted on 12 September 2025 at 114,861 miles resulted in no defects recorded, indicating that the previous owner successfully addressed any outstanding issues. While the car suffered a failure in September 2024, the immediate pass on the retest at the same mileage suggests a reactive approach to necessary repairs rather than a pattern of mechanical neglect. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a well-used older runabout, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. Between the 2022 test at 91,565 miles and the 2025 test at 114,861 miles, the vehicle covered 23,296 miles, showing a steady usage pattern. This low annual mileage reduces the wear typically seen on high-frequency drivetrain components, though the age of the vehicle increases the likelihood of perished rubber-based components and structural issues related to corrosion regardless of the distance driven. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific cause of the September 2024 failure, as the record provided does not detail the point of failure. Given the age of this Fiat Grande Punto, a thorough check of the structural integrity is mandatory, specifically around the sills and rear wheel arches where rust corrosion is common on this model. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue, as low-mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from hardening of rubber components over seventeen years.
