2009 Fiat Grande Punto 1.4L Petrol · OY09 XMD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a worsening trajectory regarding suspension and structural integrity. While the most recent test in April 2026 at 93,054 miles resulted in a pass, it revealed immediate concerns with a badly worn nearside front tyre and aged rear rubber. This follows a period of recurring suspension failures where all four coil springs were flagged for corrosion across three consecutive years, suggesting that the owner is only replacing components once they reach a failure point rather than performing preventative maintenance. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 93,054 miles represents a low annual average of approximately 5,400 miles. The data shows a consistent but slow rate of use, with 7,851 miles covered between April 2024 and April 2026. This low mileage often masks wear on the engine and drivetrain components, but in this specific case, the stationary nature of the vehicle appears to have accelerated age-related degradation, as evidenced by the persistent corrosion and underbody issues noted in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the underbody to assess the extent of the corrosion flagged in the May 2025 test. The history indicates a clear pattern of structural fatigue in the coil springs, which have been failing progressively from 2023 through 2025. The buyer should also check the exhaust system for signs of the minor leak identified in 2024 and verify the age and condition of all tyres, as the rear set is now over a decade old and likely nearing the end of their structural life regardless of remaining tread depth.
