Fiat 500x (2019)
2019 Fiat 500x
CarHunch analysed 3,063 real MOT records for the 2019 Fiat 500x. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2019 FIAT 500X is a reliable performer, with a 91.7% first-time pass rate that sits well above the UK average of 80%. Only 13.8% have ever recorded a dangerous defect, which is reassuring and suggests no systemic safety concerns.
At 32,900 miles on average, these cars are running low mileage for their age, which helps explain the strong pass rate and modest 0.46 failures per vehicle. The 3.8 advisories per car are typical wear items rather than serious issues—if you're buying one, have a pre-purchase inspection focus on suspension and light clusters, as those drive most advisory flags on this model.
What to check before buying a 2019 Fiat 500x
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
