2015 Fiat 500C 1.2L Petrol · SW07 ADE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent test in May 2026 at 36,196 miles passed despite advisories for both rear outer tyres being near the legal limit and showing uneven wear. This indicates that while the car remains legal for the road, the owner has only begun to address consumable items once they reached the point of failure or advisory. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,300 miles per year. Between April 2024 and May 2025, the car covered only 727 miles, suggesting it sits for long periods or is used only for very short trips. This low usage often masks mechanical wear on the engine and gearbox, but it frequently leads to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid-related issues, which is evidenced by the TPMS warning light recorded in May 2023. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension geometry, specifically following the May 2025 failure due to a worn offside front Macpherson strut pin or bush. Although this passed the subsequent test, the presence of such wear on a low-mile car warrants scrutiny. The uneven wear noted on the rear tyres in the 2026 test suggests an alignment issue or a sticking brake caliper that requires a professional check to prevent premature tyre replacement. Given the low annual mileage, inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion and pitting, as these are common on vehicles that remain stationary.
