2012 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · NV12 XLC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean MOT pass on 1 December 2025 at 72,389 miles. While a failure was recorded on 2 December 2024, the vehicle was immediately retested two days later and passed with no defects or advisories. This rapid resolution of issues suggests that the current or previous owner is proactive in addressing immediate mechanical requirements, maintaining a consistent standard of presentation over the last three years. At 14 years old, the recorded mileage of 72,389 miles represents a low average of approximately 5,170 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with a gap of 5,723 miles recorded between November 2022 and November 2023, and another 6,603 miles between November 2023 and December 2024. This low annual mileage typically reduces wear on drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based seals due to age. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis, as Fiat 500s of this era are prone to corrosion in the sills and floor pans. Despite the clean recent records, the low mileage increases the likelihood that suspension bushes and shock absorbers may have perished from age rather than mechanical wear. Inspect the brake system for signs of caliper seizing or pitted discs, as vehicles that travel short distances often suffer from moisture-induced rust on the braking assembly.
