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

This 2016 Abarth has 12 MOT tests on record with a 58% pass rate and 20,030 miles. While mileage is consistent, the extensive list of unresolved advisories and past failures indicates significant ongoing maintenance needs.

The vehicle shows consistent annual mileage, averaging 10,286 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, including a period of low usage (2016-2019).

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension failures (Sep 2021, Sep 2022, Sep 2023) and numerous advisories (e.g., Sep 2025) point to chronic wear.
  • Brake disc wear advisories (Sep 2020, Sep 2023) and pad wear (Sep 2020) suggest a history of brake system neglect.
  • Engine MIL inoperative or malfunction (Sep 2022) is a serious electrical fault that needs verification of resolution.
  • Offside Front Shock absorber serious fluid leak (Sep 2022) is a major safety concern that was not immediately rectified.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 10,286 miles/year, indicating normal usage.
  • Valid MOT until September 2026, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the provided MOT history.
  • Extensive history of retests and immediate repairs after failures, showing responsive ownership.
