This 2017 Abarth has 11 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 21,774 miles. The mileage is low and consistent, but the vehicle's safety record is highly compromised.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, showing normal usage of 9,095 miles/year, with no anomalies or suspicious drops.

Things to check

  • 2022-09-12 FAILED MOT with DANGEROUS rear brake pads less than 1.5 mm thick.
  • 2023-09-11 FAILED MOT with DANGEROUS nearside rear wheel bearing play.
  • Recurring suspension arm failures (2023, 2024, 2025) and steering rack advisories (2024, 2025).
  • Recurring tyre advisories (2020, 2025) and headlamp failures (2024, 2025).

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-05-31, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (9,095 miles/year) suggests light use.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation.
  • Immediate retests after failures show owner's proactive repair approach.
