2013 Chrysler Ypsilon 1.2L Petrol · SA13 RFZ

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent inspection in October 2025 at 99,207 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes. This suggests that the previous owner was reactive, addressing faults once flagged by the tester rather than performing preventative maintenance. The lack of recorded advisories on the latest test indicates that the immediate mechanical and structural requirements met the minimum standard. The mileage profile is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per year. There is a significant gap of 17,136 miles between September 2023 and September 2024, followed by another 16,962 miles between September 2024 and October 2025. This steady accumulation suggests regular road use which is generally beneficial for vehicle components like rubber bushings and brake seals to prevent seizing or dry rot often seen in low-mile cars of this era. Despite the clean report on the final test, a buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the suspension and braking system. The vehicle failed the MOT in both 2024 and 2025 without specific defects listed in the summary provided, which often implies the issues were minor consumable items or light bulbs that were rectified quickly. Check for signs of surface corrosion on the exhaust system and structural mounting points, as the car is now thirteen years old. Examine the brake discs for signs of thinning or uneven wear to ensure the components that caused the previous failures were properly replaced.
