Fiat Punto 60 Sx Selecta (1995)
1995 Fiat Punto 60 Sx Selecta
CarHunch analysed 525 real MOT records for the 1995 Fiat Punto 60 Sx Selecta. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 1995 Punto 60 SX Selecta is a serious reliability concern, with just a 15.5% first-time pass rate against the UK average of 80%—meaning nearly 7 in 8 examples fail their MOT. Only 4% have ever recorded a dangerous defect, so while failures are common, they're not typically safety-critical.
At 64,000 miles average, these cars have covered relatively modest mileage for a 29-year-old model, yet they're still accumulating 0.4 failures and 0.7 advisories per test, pointing to widespread wear and corrosion rather than catastrophic mechanical breakdown. If you're considering one, budget for immediate welding work and exhaust repairs, and treat any example that passes as a lucky find rather than a reliable purchase.
What to check before buying a 1995 Fiat Punto 60 Sx Selecta
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.
