2021 Fiat 500 Dolcevita Mhev 1.0L Petrol · NG71 HTU

The most recent MOT test on 23rd May 2026 shows a clean pass at 25,185 miles with zero advisories or defects. This represents a clear improvement over the preceding test from November 2025, where the car initially failed on two front tyre defects. The tester flagged an offside front tyre with exposed cords and a nearside front tyre worn close to the legal limit. Both issues were rectified, allowing a same-day pass. The maintenance trend is therefore stable and currently positive, with no recurring mechanical or structural problems emerging across the four recorded tests. The recorded annual mileage of roughly 5,000 miles is genuinely low for a five-year-old vehicle. The mileage accumulation is not uniform, however. Between November 2024 and November 2025, the car covered nearly 9,000 miles, a marked increase from the lower usage earlier in its life. This suggests a period of heavier daily driving or a change of ownership pattern. The jump from 23,247 miles in November 2025 to 25,185 miles in May 2026 indicates a return to lighter use in the last six months. The car has not stood idle for extended periods, but prospective buyers should verify that the low mileage is genuine and not the result of a disconnected speedometer. The MOT record is remarkably clean aside from the tyre failure. No suspension, brake, steering, or structural corrosion advisories appear at any point. There is nothing in the history to suggest underlying neglect of worn components such as suspension bushes or brake discs. A buyer should nevertheless conduct a thorough visual inspection of the front tyres for any uneven wear patterns, as the November 2025 failure suggests the previous owner allowed both front tyres to degrade significantly. The car's light mileage means a test drive should focus on brake feel and clutch take-up, as these components can degrade from infrequent use rather than outright wear.
