AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2017 Abarth has 8 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 10,657 miles. While recent failures were addressed, the vehicle's maintenance history warrants careful inspection.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage (4,488 miles/yr) until a significant 14,015-mile jump occurred between Feb 2025 and Feb 2026, which is unusually high for its age.

Things to check

  • Feb 2026 MOT shows a 14,015-mile jump in just 12 months, significantly above its 4,488-mile/yr average.
  • Nearside Front Shock absorbers had a serious fluid leak (Feb 2026), and the Nearside Front Macpherson strut pin/bush was excessively worn (Feb 2026).
  • The Offside Front Windscreen wiper blade was defective (Mar 2023).

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-02-08, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
  • No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history, indicating no immediate safety failures.
  • Consistent low annual mileage (4,488 miles/yr) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
  • All prior failures and advisories were immediately rectified and passed subsequent MOTs, demonstrating responsive ownership.
