This 2017 Fiat has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 59,023 miles. The recurring suspension advisories and recent major steering failure indicate a high-risk purchase.
A critical mileage anomaly is present: 59,023 miles in Jan 2020, but only 52,507 miles in Mar 2021, suggesting possible odometer tampering.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Jan 2020 (59,023 mi) and Mar 2021 (52,507 mi) — possible odometer tamperin
- Mileage decreased from 59,023 miles (Jan 2020) to 52,507 miles (Mar 2021) — possible odometer tampering.
- Major failure for Offside Windscreen damage (Mar 2021) — a dangerous defect that required immediate repair.
- Major failure for Nearside Front Track rod end ball joint excessive play (Mar 2026) — a critical steering component.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until March 2027, indicating current roadworthiness despite past issues.
- No recurring failures on the same system, suggesting each defect was addressed at the time.
- Consistent annual mileage (8,995 miles/year) before the 2021 anomaly, suggesting normal usage.
- No recent major failures on the most recent MOT (Apr 2026) after the major failures in 2026.
