AI verdict AVOID 51/100

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 22 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 22,923 miles. The vehicle's age and recurring issues make it a high-risk purchase.

The mileage trajectory shows a consistent low annual usage (4,413 miles/yr) until a significant jump of 13,233 miles in the 2 years before the March 2026 MOT.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension failures (Oct 2022, Oct 2021) and advisories (Oct 2020, Oct 2019) indicate chronic neglect.
  • Major suspension failures (Oct 2022, Oct 2021) and advisories (Oct 2020, Oct 2019) point to systemic structural issues.
  • Unusually high mileage jump (13,233 miles in 2 years) before Mar 2026 is a significant red flag for odometer integrity.
  • Offside Rear Tyre advisory (Oct 2018) was never addressed, indicating a pattern of owner neglect.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle has a valid MOT until March 2027, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
  • No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Mar 2026).
  • Consistent low annual mileage (4,413 miles/yr) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
