2012 Fiat 500 C 0.9L Petrol · LM62 KZA

The 2012 Fiat 500 C presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 21 May 2025 at 52,830 miles, with the maintenance trend stable across the recorded history. The most recent test came five days after a failure on 16 May 2025 at 52,815 miles that listed no defects, indicating the vehicle was rejected on administrative or unrecorded grounds rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in 2024, 2023, and 2022 all passed with no advisories, showing no worsening pattern in suspension, braking, or structural condition. Recorded mileage sits at 52,830 against an age of roughly fourteen years, equating to about 3,774 miles per year and confirming very light use. The odometer moved only 1,514 miles between the April 2022 test at 50,316 miles and the May 2024 test at 51,752 miles, then added just 1,078 miles to the 2025 pass. Such low accumulation suggests extended standing periods, which can allow corrosion or perished rubber components to develop despite minimal wear to drivetrain parts. The absence of any flagged advisories across five years means no recurring suspension bushes, coil spring, brake disc, or exhaust emission concerns appear in the data. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody structural integrity and brake caliper freedom, as the DVSA record shows no evidence either way and low-mileage cars often hide rust from damp storage. The May 2025 fail with zero defects warrants a check of the original refusal reason with the seller, since it may relate to a documentation or lighting check missed on the day. Given the clean trailing pass and stable history, the vehicle shows no technical red flags from the MOT trail alone.
