Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the most rec
Focus your attention on the exhaust system and engine seals. The vehicle failed its MOT in March 2025 due to major exhaust leaks and emissions failures, and had a minor exhaust leak recorded as early as February 2024. You should verify if the exhaust was fully replaced or merely patched.
Additionally, the MOT records from 2024 and 2025 both mention oil leaks that required monitoring. Check for any fresh residue around the engine block and request service records to see if these leaks were professionally addressed or simply left to be monitored. Negotiate based on the age of the vehicle and the history of these recurring minor defects.
The 1242cc petrol engine is designed for urban efficiency, typically falling into a lower insurance group and tax band. Maintenance costs for this model are generally moderate, though the age of the vehicle means wear-and-tear items like tyres and exhaust components are more likely to require replacement.
Annual costs will include fuel, road tax, and routine servicing. Given the vehicle's age and history of minor leaks, a slightly higher maintenance budget is recommended to cover potential seal replacements or suspension work.
Closely inspect the rear axle and suspension components. The MOT history from February 2023 and February 2024 specifically flagged corrosion on the rear axle and worn swivel pins and bushes. Ensure these have not deteriorated further despite the most recent clean pass.
Check the underside of the car for the condition of the exhaust system, specifically the flexible joint and the area forward of the rear silencer where major leaks were recorded in 2025. Finally, perform a visual check for oil seepage around the engine, referencing the repeated advisories from 2024 and 2025.
This blue 2014 FIAT 500 has covered 73,292 miles, which is slightly above the model average. The MOT history reveals a pattern of exhaust system deterioration and persistent oil leaks, though the March 2026 test was passed without defects. The vehicle has also had recorded corrosion and wear on the rear axle components.
The FIAT 500 has an average MOT pass rate of 77.8%, with common failures frequently involving shock absorbers and suspension arms.
