2018 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · MM67 UJA

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from clean records to emerging mechanical concerns. The most recent test in February 2026 at 54,589 miles identified de-lamination on both the nearside and offside rear coil springs. While the car passed, the presence of corrosion on structural suspension components indicates the beginning of wear that differs from the defect-free results seen in 2022 and 2024. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. The data shows steady progression from 30,187 miles in early 2022 to 54,589 miles in early 2026. This low annual usage suggests the car has not been heavily stressed, which typically preserves the drivetrain and interior. However, the advisory for an under-inflated tyre in 2023 at 37,730 miles suggests that basic daily checks may occasionally be overlooked between annual tests. A buyer should prioritise an inspection of the rear suspension to determine if the corrosion on the coil springs has progressed to the point of requiring immediate replacement. Given that both rear springs were flagged simultaneously, the buyer should check for further rust on the mounting points and the surrounding shock absorber towers. The 2025 advisory regarding the deteriorated registration plate own be verified to ensure the plate has been replaced or is not currently cracking or fading, which would lead to a future failure.
