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 16 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 18,499 miles. The vehicle's low mileage and consistent service intervals are positive, but the pattern of neglect in critical safety systems warrants significant caution.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage averaging 5,789 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating genuine light usage.

Things to check

  • Oct 2022: Offside Front Shock absorber advisory — a recurring issue from 2019 and 2022.
  • Oct 2022: Nearside Front Suspension arm advisory — another recurring issue from 2019 and 2022.
  • Oct 2019: Nearside Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick — a DANGEROUS defect.
  • Oct 2019: Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements — a DANGEROUS defect.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent, low annual mileage (5,789 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation.
  • Recent clean MOT pass in Oct 2022, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recurring failures on the same system after initial repairs.
