2015 Fiat 500X 1.6L Diesel · SB65 AYY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT on 6 August 2025 at 80,992 miles showing a clean pass with no defects. This follows a successful test in January 2024, indicating that the car has moved past the more frequent mechanical failures seen in previous years. The maintenance trend has improved significantly since the 2022 and 2023 testing periods, where the vehicle required repairs for suspension components and lighting. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,363 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, moving from 63,248 miles in January 2020 to the current 80,992 miles. There are no signs of long periods of inactivity or sudden, excessive mileage spikes that might suggest heavy commercial use or odometer tampering. The progression between tests, such as the 5,306 miles recorded between the January 2024 and August 2025 tests, suggests regular, predictable driving patterns. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking systems. While the 2022 test flagged worn suspension arm pins and bushes on both the nearside and offside rear, and the January 2023 test identified a fractured nearside front coil spring, these issues appear to have been addressed. However, checking for any residual play in the suspension bushes or uneven tyre wear remains prudent. The 2020 record highlighted significant wear on the rear brake discs and front pads, so verifying the current thickness of the pads and the surface condition of the discs is necessary to ensure no deferred maintenance exists. The history also shows minor issues with consumables, such as the misaligned washer jets in early 2023 and the failed bulb in August 2024. These represent basic upkeep rather than systemic mechanical failure. Given the clean pass in the most recent 2025 test, the vehicle appears to be in a well-maintained state, provided the previous suspension and braking repairs were carried out to a professional standard.
