2015 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · SP05 LOZ

The 2015 Fiat 500 presents a current roadworthy status with a passed MOT dated 5 February 2026 at 77,248 miles, showing no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the DVSA history appears stable in mechanical terms, though the record reveals two anomalous fail outcomes immediately preceded by passes at near-identical mileages. On 27 January 2026 the tester failed the car at 77,241 miles with no defects listed, then a subsequent test eight days later passed it. A similar pattern occurred on 8 February 2024 with a fail at 68,434 miles and a pass on 9 February 2024 at the same mileage. This indicates administrative or procedural anomalies rather than worsening mechanical condition. Mileage accumulation sits at roughly 7,023 miles per year against the vehicle's eleven-year lifespan, a typical usage rate for this age of supermini. The odometer advanced from 68,434 miles in February 2024 to 75,007 miles by February 2025, equating to about 6,573 miles over twelve months. By January 2026 the car recorded 77,241 miles, a further 2,234 miles in eleven months, showing a slight slowdown in annual coverage. No large gaps or rapid accumulation appear; the sparse but clean test history suggests either light commuting or periodic storage, with no mileage inconsistencies that would flag clocking. Given the absence of recorded advisories or defects across all five tests, a buyer should not infer a fault-free chassis without physical verification. The MOT entries never flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, brake disc wear, binding calipers, or structural corrosion, yet these components on a 2015 Fiat 500 at 77k miles warrant hands-on inspection. Previous owners presented the car for retest within days of each fail, implying they addressed whatever non-mechanical cause triggered the rejection but left no paper trail of consumable renewal. We recommend a pre-purchase examination of underbody integrity, exhaust emissions under load, and front suspension arm bushes, as the DVSA data offers no evidence of intervention but cannot confirm component health. The repeated fail-with-no-defect entries merit a check of test station logs or previous owner correspondence to rule out identity mismatches.
