2016 Fiat 500C 1.2L Petrol · PO11 YOW

This FIAT 500C presents an exceptionally clean MOT record. Every test from December 2022 through the most recent examination in December 2025 passed with no defects or advisories recorded. The single failure on 11 December 2024 at 9,697 miles is anomalous, as the tester recorded no defects on that same day before issuing a pass. This suggests either an administrative error or a very quick rectification, but it does not indicate any underlying mechanical fault. The overall maintenance trend is stable and positive, with no recurring issues or escalating concerns. The mileage pattern confirms very light use. At 10,629 miles on a ten-year-old car, the annual average is roughly 1,063 miles. The recorded increments are consistent: 7,116 miles in December 2022, 8,947 miles in December 2023, 9,697 miles in December 2024, and 10,629 miles in December 2025. There are no gaps or sudden jumps in mileage. This pattern points to occasional, short-distance journeys rather than prolonged standing, though the overall usage remains extremely low for the vehicle's age. Given the flawless MOT history, a buyer should focus on the effects of infrequent use rather than any known defects. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion, which can develop on a car that does not get regular hard stops. Check the condition of the tyres for age-related cracking, even if tread depth appears adequate. Examine the battery health and look for any signs of seized suspension bushes or binding calipers from extended periods of inactivity. The structural integrity appears sound based on the test records, but a thorough visual check of the underbody for any corrosion is still prudent. Overall, this car has been consistently presented for annual testing and has passed without issue, indicating conscientious ownership.
