2018 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · WR18 JYC

The 2025‑04‑04 MOT at 34,592 miles confirms the Fiat 500 is roadworthy, with the tester recording no defects. All tests from April 2022 through April 2025 have passed without recorded defects, showing a stable maintenance trend. The recent pass follows three earlier passes at lower mileage, reinforcing confidence in the vehicle’s upkeep. The mileage trajectory shows a steady increase of roughly 4,000 miles per year, climbing from 23,796 miles in April 2022 to 34,592 miles in April 2025, a total gain of 10,796 miles over three years. The interval between the April 2024 and April 2025 tests spans nearly twelve months and accounts for 4,076 miles, indicating consistent use rather than long periods of inactivity. Although the annual average of 4,324 miles per year is modest for an eight‑year‑old car, the pattern reflects regular, light‑to‑moderate driving rather than extended storage. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, test the rear brakes for binding calipers, and inspect the brake discs for scoring or corrosion. Visual checks of the chassis and wheel arches for structural rust, especially around the sill and subframe, are advisable, as are measurements of tyre tread depth and alignment. Finally, verification of the exhaust emissions result and confirmation that any previous advisories have been fully rectified will complete a thorough pre‑purchase assessment.
