Our Verdict
A cautious recommendation. While the veh
Prospective buyers should focus on the chassis and exhaust system. The 2026 MOT specifically flags a minor leak in the exhaust flexi area and surface corrosion on the rear beam, the latter of which was also noted in 2025. Confirm whether any remedial rust treatment or exhaust repairs have been carried out since the last test.
Additionally, review the oil leak mentioned in the 2025 MOT. While described as 'not excessive' at the time, it is important to check if this has persisted or worsened. Ensure there is a documented service history to complement the MOT data, as the records only confirm the vehicle met minimum safety standards at the time of testing.
The 1242cc petrol engine is designed for urban efficiency, typically placing it in a lower insurance group and a modest road tax bracket for 2014 vehicles. Maintenance for the 1.2L engine is generally straightforward and cost-effective due to the model's prevalence in the UK.
Annual running costs are estimated to be moderate, covering fuel, tax, insurance, and the likely need for suspension or exhaust work based on recent advisories. Typical annual expenditure for this model is expected to fall within the £900-£1,200 range.
Prioritise a physical inspection of the rear beam to assess the extent of the corrosion noted in the 2025 and 2026 MOTs. Check the exhaust system, specifically the flexi-pipe area, for the leak identified in the most recent test, and verify if the registration plate lamp has been replaced.
Inspect the rear upper shock absorber bushes for wear, as this aligns with both the 2026 advisory and the wider model aggregate data which identifies shock absorbers as a top failure reason. Finally, check the engine bay for any active oil leaks as flagged in the 2025 record.
This green 2014 Fiat 500 has recorded five consecutive MOT passes, reaching 67,472 miles as of April 2026. While the record was clean in 2022 and 2023, the most recent tests show a trend of increasing advisories. These include recurring rear beam corrosion, a minor exhaust leak, and a worn shock absorber bush.
The Fiat 500 has an average MOT pass rate of 77.8%, with common failure points typically involving shock absorbers and suspension arms.
