2014 Fiat 500 POP 1.2L Petrol · SW14 TBU

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean pass on March 10, 2026, at 104,317 miles. The maintenance trend is currently improving after a period of instability. After two consecutive failures in January and February 2026, the most recent test showed no recorded defects, suggesting that the owner addressed the issues identified during those failed inspections. The lack of advisories on the latest certificate indicates that the immediate mechanical and safety components met the minimum legal requirements for road use. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical urban run car of this age, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per annum. There is a notable cluster of activity between January 2025 and March 2026, where the car covered over 4,500 miles in just fourteen months. This rapid accumulation explains the frequent MOT testing during that period, as the vehicle was being driven more frequently than the previous gap between the January 2024 and January 2025 tests shows a standard annual interval, which is generally beneficial for mechanical components compared to long periods. A buyer should inspect the exhaust system specifically, as the failure in January 2025 identified an exhaust leak at the flexi-joint and high lambda readings. While the car has passed since, a physical check should ensure the flex-joint was properly replaced and that the oxygen sensor is functioning correctly. Given the 104,000-mile milestone, a close look at the suspension bushes and coil springs is also advisable, as these are common points of wear on the Fiat 500 platform that were not yet flagged in the recent clean records.
