AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Fiat has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 16,288 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, particularly a 10-year period of only 16 miles, is a significant red flag for potential underlying issues.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 16,288 miles over 10 years, with a suspiciously low 11-mile journey recorded between Sep 2024 and Jan 2024, indicating potential odometer fraud or a long period of inactivity.
Things to check
- Dangerous tyre defect recorded on 2023-03-01 (Mar 2023) — immediate safety concern.
- Recurring tyre advisories (Feb 2022, Mar 2023) escalated to dangerous failure, indicating poor maintenance.
- Recurring brake disc advisories (Mar 2023) suggest ongoing wear and potential neglect.
- Extremely low mileage of 16,288 miles over 10 years (Jan 2016 to Aug 2025) is highly suspicious.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-09-03, indicating current roadworthiness and recent safety checks.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects in the MOT history.
- Consistent annual mileage increases (post-2024) suggest regular use after initial low period.
- No evidence of Cat N/S write-off or outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
