2017 Abarth 595 1.4L Petrol · LL17 NTJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with a clean and consistent MOT history over the past four years. The most recent test on 2026-06-08 at 16,614 miles confirmed no defects, indicating that the car has maintained its mechanical integrity through regular servicing and inspections. The absence of any advisories or failures across all five consecutive tests suggests a stable maintenance trend, with no emerging issues in critical systems such as brakes, steering, suspension, or emissions. The recorded mileage of 16,614 miles over nine years equates to an average of approximately 1,846 miles per year, which is significantly below the UK average for this age group. This low usage pattern is supported by the steady progression of mileage between tests: from 3,498 miles in June 2022 to 7,022 miles in June 2023 (a gain of 3,524 miles), then 10,192 miles in June 2024 (+3,170 miles), 13,411 miles in June 2025 (+3,219 miles), and finally 16,614 miles in June 2026 (+3,203 miles). The consistent annual increase indicates regular but light use, with no extended periods of inactivity evident from the data. There are no sudden jumps or gaps in the mileage record, suggesting reliable and predictable operation. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should still conduct a thorough visual and functional inspection of key components. Focus on the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these can degrade under prolonged storage or infrequent use even if not flagged in MOTs. Check for signs of brake binding or uneven wear, particularly on the rear calipers, which may not trigger a fault unless severe. Inspect the exhaust system for corrosion, especially near the manifold and mid-pipe, as moisture buildup during low-mileage use can accelerate rust. Additionally, verify the battery health and electrical connections, as long periods of inactivity can lead to sulfation or terminal corrosion despite passing emissions checks.
