2015 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · WM65 WMD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in January 2026 with 44,241 miles and no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the owner has addressed specific mechanical failures identified in previous tests. While the 2025 test failed due to a fractured offside rear coil spring and a damaged reflector, these issues were rectified to secure a pass later that year, indicating a reactive approach to safety-critical repairs. At 44,241 miles over eleven years, this Fiat has clocked significantly below the national average, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. The usage pattern is consistent but low, with roughly 4,000 miles covered between February 2024 and February 2025, and another 2,200 miles in the year leading up to the latest test. This low mileage often suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine, but it can also lead to degradation of rubber components and brake hardware if the vehicle sits for extended periods. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension top mounts, as the 2024 test flagged slight movement in both components at 37,955 miles. Although this was an advisory rather than a failure, these mounts can cause noise and affect handling over time. Furthermore, the 2023 record of pitted and scored front brake discs at 36,250 miles suggests that the low mileage may be causing corrosion due to lack of use. Given the fractured coil spring noted in 2025, a visual check of all remaining springs is necessary to ensure no further corrosion or fatigue is present.
