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

This 2012 Fiat has 13 MOT tests on record with a 85% pass rate and 28,459 miles. The most recent test in Sep 2025 noted a shock absorber advisory, which is a concern for a 14-year-old vehicle.

The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 6,608 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.

Things to check

  • Sep 2018: Recurring advisories for tyres, suspension, and exhaust system corrosion.
  • Sep 2025: Latest MOT noted an advisory for an excessively worn offside rear shock absorber bush.
  • Sep 2025: Recurring advisories for tyres and suspension components across multiple tests.
  • Sep 2025: Recurring advisories for exhaust system corrosion and emissions issues.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-09-14, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (6,608 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
  • No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • Immediate retests after failures show responsible owner rectification efforts.
