AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2008 Fiat has 17 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 10,968 miles. The vehicle's age, combined with its poor maintenance record, makes it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows very low usage, averaging 2,652 miles/year, with a significant anomaly of only 20 miles/year recorded before July 2015.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Jul 2025): Nearside Rear Tyre has a tear, caused by separation or partial failure of its st
  • DANGEROUS tyre defects recorded in Jul 2018 and Jul 2025 MOTs.
  • MAJOR suspension failures and advisories across 7 tests, including corroded sills.
  • Extremely low mileage (2,652 mi/yr) with a 20 mi/yr anomaly before Jul 2015.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until August 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories since the August 2025 pass.
  • Consistent, albeit low, mileage trajectory over its lifespan.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
