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

This 2009 Fiat has 23 MOT tests on record with a 61% pass rate and 29,086 miles. The vehicle's age and persistent issues make it a high-risk purchase.

The mileage trajectory shows suspiciously low usage before Feb 2024 (141 mi/yr equivalent), followed by normal annual increases, indicating a potential odometer fraud or extended periods of inactivity.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS tyre defects recorded in Jan 2019 and Jan 2024, indicating severe neglect.
  • Recurring major failures in brakes (8 times), emissions (6 times), and suspension (8 times) across multiple tests.
  • Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low usage before Feb 2024 (141 mi/yr equivalent), suggesting potential odometer fraud.
  • The vehicle has a 17-year history with consistent, high-level wear and tear, making it a high-risk purchase.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT until March 2027, indicating it is roadworthy for now.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting the owner has been addressing issues as they arise.
  • Consistent annual mileage since 2024, showing no recent periods of prolonged inactivity.
  • The vehicle has a comprehensive MOT history, providing a clear picture of its maintenance and wear.
