2011 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · WM11 AEL

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT record at its most recent inspection. The November 2025 test at 29,999 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a failed test on October 27, 2025, at the same mileage, though the specific cause of that failure was not documented in the provided record. The transition from a failure to a pass within one week suggests a minor, rectified issue rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally low for a 2011 model, averaging approximately 2,000 miles per year. The data shows a consistent, slow progression from 26,035 miles in October 2022 to 29,999 miles in November 2025. While this low usage suggests minimal drivetrain wear, such infrequent use often leads to secondary issues like perished rubber components, seized calipers, or flat-spotting on tyres. The steady, incremental increases in mileage between annual tests indicate regular, albeit light, usage. A physical inspection should focus on components that degrade during periods of inactivity. You should check for signs of corrosion on the underbody and exhaust system, as well as the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs. Given the low annual mileage, inspect the brake discs for surface pitting and ensure the calipers are not binding. Additionally, check the age and condition of the tyres and all rubber seals to ensure they have not perished from sitting stationary for extended periods.
