2017 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · RO17 AAU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, though the record shows a significant gap in testing. The most recent recorded test on May 12 2022 at 49,550 miles resulted in a pass following an initial failure for the tyre pressure monitoring system. Since that date, the vehicle has not undergone an MOT test for over four years, meaning the current mechanical condition and safety compliance remain unverified by the official DVSA database. The mileage pattern is consistently low for a nine-year-old car, averaging approximately 5,500 miles per annum. Data shows steady progression rather than rapid accumulation between the last recorded tests, moving from 44,144 miles in June 2020 to 47,121 miles in May 2021, and finally to 49,550 miles in May 2022. This low usage suggests light mechanical strain which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, though long periods of inactivity can occasionally lead to rubber-based components degrading or brake calipers seizing due to lack of regular heat and movement. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the tyre pressure monitoring system to ensure the fault identified in the 2022 failure was actually rectified. Because the car has sat without an MOT for four years, the inspection should also check for flat spots on the tyres, perished suspension bushes, and excessive corrosion on the brake discs and rotors. Examine the underside for any signs of structural rust or fluid leaks, as low-mileage vehicles often hide age-related decay that does not manifest through high mileage-based wear.
