2021 Fiat 500L 1.4L Petrol · SY21 HDD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful test in April 2026. The maintenance trend remains generally stable, though a failure just eight miles prior to the most recent pass at 24,570 miles indicates a specific mechanical fault. The tester identified a fractured offside front coil spring, which was clearly rectified to allow the car to pass the subsequent inspection at 24,578 miles with no further defects recorded. The mileage profile is consistently low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,900 miles per year. Data shows steady usage patterns with an increase from 19,546 miles in April 2024 to 22,202 miles in April 2025, and reaching 24,578 miles by April 2026. This low annual mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, although low-frequency can sometimes lead to dry rot in rubber components or brake seizing if the vehicle sat stationary for extended periods. A buyer should physically inspect the front suspension assembly to ensure the replacement coil spring has been fitted correctly and that no other components like wish bushes have perished. Given the low mileage, the risk of structural corrosion is low, but the brake discs should be checked for pitting or surface rust which often occurs on cars with infrequent use. The clean history prior to the spring failure suggests the previous owners maintained the vehicle well without recurring mechanical neglect.
