2012 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · LO62 AEZ

The 2012 FIAT 500 is presently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 27 March 2025 at 76,482 miles. The sequence of results – a single failure in April 2022 followed by uninterrupted passes in April 2023, April 2024 and March 2025 – indicates a stabilising maintenance pattern rather than a deteriorating one. Mileage has remained modest for a fourteen‑year‑old car, averaging roughly 5,500 miles per annum. Between the 12 April 2022 test at 62,231 miles and the 11 April 2023 test at 67,540 miles the vehicle accrued 5,309 miles, a typical yearly usage figure. The subsequent rise to 70,658 miles by 3 April 2024 and to 76,482 miles by 27 March 2025 reflects consistent, low‑intensity driving with no abrupt spikes that would suggest periods of heavy use or neglect. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of wear items and structural components that the MOT record does not capture. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity, as low mileage does not guarantee recent replacement. Examine the brake discs, pads and calipers for even wear and any signs of binding, especially given the city‑focused nature of the 500. Check suspension bushes and coil springs for corrosion or fatigue, and scan the under‑carriage for rust that could compromise structural integrity. A visual appraisal of the exhaust system and emission controls will confirm that the vehicle continues to meet environmental standards.
