2018 Fiat 500C 1.2L Petrol · LT18 UFM

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a trend of developing wear in specific suspension components. The most recent test in May 2026 at 57,929 miles resulted in a pass despite a deteriorated rear registration plate and a worn offside front suspension arm pin or bush. While the car passes its inspection, the persistence of the suspension bushing issue across multiple years suggests that the component is progressing towards a failure rather than being addressed. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,240 miles per year. Since the clean test in May 2022 at 30,265 miles, the car has covered roughly 27,000 miles. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has not been subject to long periods of inactivity, which often accounts for the accelerated degradation of rubber-based components like the perishing nearside rear tyre noted in the 2024 test at 42,501 miles. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the offside front suspension, as the worn pin or bush has been flagged in both 2025 and 2026. Failure to replace this soon will eventually lead to excessive movement and an MOT failure. The braking system should also be checked for pad thickness, given that the record shows thin pads in 2023 at 36,468 miles. Finally, the deteriorated rear plate requires replacement to ensure legal legibility and avoid potential fines.
