2016 Fiat 500 1.2L Petrol · YA65 HFE

The vehicle remains roadworthy as of its most recent MOT on 2025-11-24, with no defects recorded at 44,791 miles. The maintenance trend is stable, with every test over the past five years passing without issue, indicating consistent care and no emerging mechanical or structural concerns. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the owner has maintained the car to a standard that meets UK roadworthiness requirements, and the pattern of passing tests shows no deterioration in critical systems. The mileage progression is notably low for a 2016 model, averaging just under 4,500 miles per year. Each MOT entry shows a steady, incremental increase — from 30,623 miles in 2021 to 44,791 miles in 2025 — with no sudden jumps or long gaps between tests. This consistent, slow accumulation implies the car has been driven sparingly, possibly kept in a garage or used for short trips, which reduces wear on tyres, suspension, and brake components. The record is clean and uninterrupted, with no signs of neglect or extended periods of inactivity that might lead to fluid degradation or component corrosion. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should inspect the suspension components closely, particularly the bushes and coil springs, as low mileage doesn’t eliminate the risk of age-related fatigue in rubber and metal parts. Check the brake system for binding calipers or worn discs, especially if the car has been stationary for long periods — moisture ingress or lack of use can cause corrosion or sticking. Also examine the underbody for early signs of rust, as even low-mileage cars can suffer from environmental exposure, particularly around wheel arches and sills. The absence of defects in the record doesn’t guarantee perfect condition, but it does indicate the car has been kept in a mechanically sound state through regular, responsible use.
