2013 Fiat 500 1.2L Diesel · LS63 MZW

The vehicle presents a strong roadworthiness status, reflecting a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection on 8 December 2025 at 84,327 miles resulted in a clean pass, continuing a streak of defectless tests spanning several years. This consistency suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and avoids the recurring mechanical or structural failures that often plague older city cars. The mileage pattern is consistent with low-use urban driving, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year over its thirteen-year life. Between December 2024 and December 2025, the car covered 2,064 miles, while the period between late 2021 and late 2022 saw 6,121 miles recorded. This steady, low-impact accumulation indicates minimal wear on drivetrain components and suspension bushings, though it also increases the risk of age-related degradation such as perished rubber seals or brake fluid contamination due to periods of lower use. While the MOT record is clear of faults, a buyer should still focus on common Fiat 500 vulnerabilities during a physical inspection. The 2020 test at 68,455 miles noted a damaged windscreen, which remains the only recorded issue in the history. Given the vehicle's age, the inspector should check for surface corrosion on the rear sills and wheel arches, as these areas often show signs before they trigger an MOT failure. They should also verify the condition of the tyres for dry sidewall cracking, as low annual mileage often masks aged rubber that retains sufficient tread depth.
