2014 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · LS14 AGZ

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a recurring pattern of minor wear-related advisories. The most recent test in August 2025 at 40,707 miles passed despite an advisory for missing nearside rear handbrake clips and supports. While the car has avoided major failures, the history indicates that components are often addressed only when they reach an advisory stage or near failure, rather than through a preventative replacement schedule. At 40,707 miles over twelve years, this Fiat has covered significantly low mileage, averaging approximately 3,400 miles per year. This low usageprofile explains the relatively low mechanical wear but introduces risks regarding rubber components and fluid systems due to age. The mileage accumulation is consistent, with roughly 1,200 to 1,400 miles recorded between annual tests from 2021 to 2025, suggesting the vehicle sits for extended periods which often leads to the corrosion and material degradation noted in the record. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension assembly, as the nearside front shock absorber has been flagged for light oil misting in both 2023 and 2024. This indicates a developing seal leak that will eventually require replacement. Furthermore, the nearside front suspension arm bush showed signs of cracking in 2023 at 38,149 miles; a physical inspection should check for any further play or perished rubber, as low-mileage cars often suffer from brittleion over time. The braking system requires attention due to documented pitting and scoring on the front discs noted in 2022, alongside a damaged nearside rear brake cable and bracket identified in 2023. The history of uneven tyre wear on inner edges in 2021 and 2022 also suggests potential alignment issues or worn suspension geometry. Ensure the handbrake operates effectively and that the recently noted handbrake pipe clips have been secured to prevent future rubbing or artwork.
