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 18 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 7,869 miles. The mileage is extremely low for its age, and the vehicle's safety and reliability are highly questionable.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 5,722 miles per year, averaging 7,869 miles over 14 years, which is a significant red flag for a 2012 car.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS defect: Tyres (Feb 2021) — immediate safety risk.
  • DANGEROUS defect: Brakes (Jan 2023) — critical safety component.
  • Recurring failures: Tyres (Feb 2021, Jan 2023) and Brakes (Feb 2021, Jan 2023) — pattern of neglect.
  • Recurring failures: Windscreen (Jan 2024, Feb 2025) and Lights (Jan 2024, Feb 2025) — multiple system failures.

Working in its favour

  • MOT currently valid until 2027-02-04 — no immediate retest required.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud — mileage trajectory is consistent, albeit low.
  • No recurring failures on the same critical system in the last 2 years — recent tests show resolution.
  • The vehicle has a valid MOT, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
