2017 Fiat Hobby 2.3L Diesel · PX67 BMU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent test on 2 July 2026 at 12,154 miles. This latest result shows no defects, indicating that previous maintenance issues have been addressed. The maintenance trend shows a clear improvement from a period of recurring tyre degradation to a completely defect-free status in the current year. The mileage pattern confirms exceptionally low usage for a 2017 vehicle, averaging approximately 1,350 miles per year. The data shows a significant period of inactivity between the October 2022 test at 6,939 miles and the June 2024 test at 11,446 miles. While the vehicle has covered very little distance, the low annual mileage suggests it may spend long periods stationary, which often impacts rubber components rather than mechanical drivetrain wear. The MOT history highlights a consistent pattern of tyre perishing and sidewall cracking across all four tyres in the 2021, 2022, and 2024 tests. These advisories appeared even at low mileages, such as 6,335 miles in November 2021. This recurring issue stems from age-related degradation of the rubber rather than tread wear from driving. Although the 2026 test shows no current defects, the history suggests the vehicle is prone to rubber perish due to its stationary nature. A prospective buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of all rubber components, including tyres, suspension bushes, and engine belts, to ensure no new cracking has developed. Given the low mileage and evidence of previous tyre perishing, checking the condition of the battery and fluid levels is also advisable to mitigate risks associated with infrequent use. The absence of structural corrosion or brake issues in the records is a positive indicator for the vehicle's overall integrity.
