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

This 2007 Fiat has 19 MOT tests on record with a 74% pass rate and 43,385 miles. The vehicle's mileage is also highly suspicious, showing extremely low usage for its first 11 years of life, followed by a significant spike in recent years.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage (690 mi/yr equivalent) from 2007 to 2008, then a significant spike to 11,859 miles in the 12 months to Aug 2024, indicating a major discrepancy.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS defect: Offside Front Sub-frame corroded and seriously weakened (Aug 2024) — immediate safety risk.
  • Recurring major failures: Subframe corrosion (2019, 2021, 2024), suspension (2021, 2023), brakes (2018, 2022, 2023), and exhaust (2018, 2023).
  • Mileage anomaly: Extremely low usage (690 mi/yr equivalent) from 2007 to 2008, then a 12-month spike to 11,859 miles (Aug 2024).
  • Consistent pattern of neglect: Multiple recurring failures and advisories across critical safety and wear items.

Working in its favour

  • No recent MOT failures: The vehicle passed its last MOT in Aug 2024 after a failure, indicating immediate compliance.
  • Consistent mileage: Once the initial low usage period, the vehicle has maintained consistent annual mileage since 2018.
  • No recent dangerous defects: The most recent MOT (Aug 2024) did not record a dangerous defect, despite the history.
