2014 Fiat 500L Lounge Multijet 1.6L Heavy oil · OUI 2221

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, following a clean MOT pass on January 21, 2026, at 98,020 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable following a brief period of instability in early 2025. While the car failed two consecutive tests in January 2025, the subsequent pass just two days later indicates that the identified defects were addressed immediately, and the vehicle has maintained its minimum legal standards since. At 98,020 miles over twelve years, the Fiat has averaged approximately 8,168 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage patterns for a family vehicle of this age. The data shows a consistent increase in mileage between the December 2023 test at 84,813 miles and the January 2025 test at 91,625 miles, representing roughly 6,800 miles over thirteen months. The recent jump of 6,395 miles recorded between the 2025 and 2026 tests suggests regular use rather than long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific components that caused the two failures in January 2025, as the record does not list the exact mechanical faults. Given the mileage and age, a close check of the suspension bushes and coil springs is necessary, as these often show wear on Fiat models at this distance. You should also inspect the brake discs for pitting or thinning and examine the structural integrity of the underbody for corrosion to ensure that no hidden rust has developed despite the clean MOT passes.
