2010 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · WM59 RLZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in April 2026 at 83,495 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, following a period of clean tests between 2022 and 2025. While the most recent test flagged surface corrosion on the rear axle, this is a common finding on older vehicles and did not result in a failure, suggesting the car is being maintained to a functional standard despite age-related wear. At 16 years old, the recorded mileage of 83,495 miles represents an average of approximately 5,218 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns in recent years, with roughly 4,000 miles covered between March 2024 and January 2025, and another 5,000 miles in the final 14 months. This low-mile profile typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it often increases the risk of rubber components and seals perishing due to time exposure rather than mechanical stress. A buyer should conduct a close physical inspection of the rear axle to ensure the surface corrosion noted in April 2026 has not progressed into structural wastage. The history shows 2023 failures involving a corroded exhaust back box, a rear coil spring, and a severely deteriorated CV boot. While these were repaired at the time, the buyer should check for signs of grease leakage around the drive shafts and rust along the exhaust system. Given the age of the vehicle, the integrity of the suspension rubber components remains the most critical area for monitoring future MOT failures.
