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 21 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 16,005 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the history of recurring issues and low annual mileage warrants a thorough investigation.
The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Oct 2017 (6 mi/yr equivalent), followed by a significant drop in annual usage, averaging only 4,068 miles per year since registration.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension advisories across 3 tests (Oct 2020, Dec 2022, Dec 2025) indicate ongoing wear.
- Recurring tyre advisories across 5 tests (Oct 2020, Dec 2022, Dec 2024, Dec 2025) suggest a pattern of neglect.
- Major failure for Offside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (Dec 2024) points to structural weakness.
- Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low mileage before Oct 2017 (6 mi/yr equivalent) raises odometer fraud concerns.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-12-04 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No recent major failures or dangerous defects recorded in the last MOT cycle.
- Consistent retesting and immediate rectification of failures demonstrate owner's responsiveness.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 3/5 stars (2017) is average for its era.
