Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle is currently in a questionable state of roadworthiness with a worsening maintenance trend. While it passed its most recent test on 18 September 2025 at 56,687 miles, the tester flagged several unresolved advisories regarding corroded rear brake pipes and a frayed offside rear seat belt. The preceding failure on 25 August 2025 revealed significant mechanical neglect, including fractured front coil springs on both sides and a failing parking brake. The mileage is typical for a nine year old car, averaging roughly 6,299 miles per year. The record shows a stable usage pattern, moving from 46,432 miles in September 2023 to 56,687 miles by September 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest commercial use or long periods of stagnation, but the sudden onset of multiple suspension and braking faults in 2025 suggests a decline in preventative care. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system and chassis. The 2025 records specifically highlight corroded rear brake pipes that were passed only after being covered in grease, which often masks the extent of the oxidation. The failure of both front coil springs and a suspension arm ball joint dust cover indicates a general degradation of the front end. The history of electrical failures in September 2024, including an inoperative engine management light and multiple marker lamps, suggests a pattern of ignoring basic warning signs. Given the recent failures and the lingering advisories on brake pipe corrosion and seat belt integrity, the vehicle requires a thorough mechanical audit to ensure these issues were properly rectified rather than superficially patched for the test.

Our Verdict

Approach this 2017 Fiat diesel with significant caution due to repeated MOT failures and structural safety defects. The recent history shows serious suspension and brake issues that were only partially resolved before the latest pass.

Given the MOT history, insist on a fresh independent inspection before purchase, focusing on the suspension, braking system, and seat belts. The August 2025 failure listed both front coil springs fractured, a broken near-side rear seat belt, and parking brake efficiency below requirements — all critical safety items that must be confirmed as properly repaired. Negotiate firmly on price to reflect the cost of replacing corroded brake pipes and addressing the outstanding advisories from the September 2025 test. Request full service history to verify routine maintenance, particularly given the 2.3-litre diesel engine's need for timely cambelt and fuel system servicing. With no model aggregate data available, rely on the individual history and a mechanic's report rather than assumed brand reliability.

The 2287cc diesel engine typically offers reasonable fuel economy for a larger Fiat, though exact figures are unavailable for this unspecified model. As a 2017 diesel, it will likely fall into a higher Vehicle Excise Duty band than petrol equivalents, and the insurance group will depend on the specific body type. Estimated annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance are likely in the region of £1,200-£1,600, with maintenance weighted upward by the suspension and brake work implied by the MOT record. Budget additionally for the corroded brake pipes flagged at the last two tests, as these will need replacement soon.

On this vehicle, physically check both front coil springs for cracks or previous fracture repairs, as the August 2025 test recorded both sides broken. Inspect the near-side and off-side rear brake pipes for the corrosion covered in grease noted at the 2025 tests, and confirm the parking brake holds efficiently. Examine the rear seat belts closely — the near-side rear was significantly weakened (cut greater than 4mm) at the 2025 failure and the off-side rear shows slight fraying on the pass — and verify the near-side front mudguard is now secure. Finally, check all outline marker and registration plate lamps, which failed in 2024, are functioning and the engine malfunction indicator is operational.

This silver 2017 Fiat diesel (PX67BLK) has covered 56,687 miles as of its September 2025 MOT, which is modest for an eight-year-old vehicle. However, the MOT record shows two failures in 2024 and 2025, including broken coil springs, corroded brake pipes, and damaged seat belts. The most recent 2025 pass still notes unresolved advisories on brake pipe corrosion and a frayed seat belt, indicating underlying condition concerns.

No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for this Fiat model, so assessment must rely solely on the individual vehicle's test history.
