2014 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · WM14 ABX

The vehicle remains roadworthy, with the latest MOT on 17 October 2025 at 44,075 miles recorded as a PASS. After a single failure in December 2022, the subsequent tests in 2023, 2024 and 2025 all passed, indicating an improving maintenance trend. Mileage averages roughly 3,700 miles per year, well below typical usage for a 2014 model. The log shows 32,205 miles in December 2022, rising to 37,230 miles by 5 October 2023, then 39,540 miles on 18 October 2024 and 44,075 miles on 17 October 2025. No abrupt spikes appear, suggesting consistent, low‑intensity use and no periods of intensive mileage accumulation. A prospective buyer should focus on the rear axle and sub‑frame, where corrosion was noted in both the 2023 and 2025 tests, albeit not deemed structurally weakened. Inspect the rear sub‑frame for any progression of rust and verify the integrity of the underseal on the rear axle. The near‑side front MacPherson strut pin and top‑mount bearing, flagged in December 2022 and again in December 2022 (failure) and October 2025 (pass), merit a close visual and functional check for play or wear. Upper shock absorber bushes on both rear sides, previously recorded as excessively worn in the 2022 failure, should be examined for any residual looseness or oil leakage. Finally, confirm that the rear tyres have been replaced since the 2022 advisory of slight damage and cracking, ensuring adequate tread depth and uniform wear.
