2010 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · WV10 VBX

The current roadworthiness status of this Fiat 500 is excellent, with the vehicle maintaining a clean pass record across the last four years. The most recent MOT on April 7, 2025, at 91,143 miles resulted in a clean pass with no recorded defects or advisories. This trend indicates a stable and well-maintained vehicle, as the absence of recurring mechanical failures suggests that previous owners have addressed consumables proactively before they escalated into test failures. The vehicle has covered approximately 91,143 miles over its 16-year lifespan, averaging a modest 5,696 miles per annum. This usage pattern is consistent and suggests regular, light operation rather than prolonged periods of inactivity, which often lead to seized calipers or perished rubber components. The mileage accumulation between the 2022 test at 81,885 miles and the 2025 test at 91,143 miles shows a steady, predictable rate of use. The single failure recorded on April 26, 2024, at 88,538 miles is negligible, as the vehicle was re-tested and passed on the same day with no defects, likely indicating a minor administrative error or a trivial issue like a blown bulb that was rectified immediately. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the subframe and floor pans, as Fiat models of this era are prone to corrosion in the rear wheel arches and sills. While the MOT history is clean, surface rust may be developing in hidden cavities that do not always trigger a test failure until they become structural. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue or cracking, as these components frequently wear on small hatchbacks despite passing annual inspections. Check the condition of the brake discs for scoring or lip formation, as the low annual mileage can sometimes lead to surface corrosion on the friction surfaces if the car is parked for extended durations.
