Fiat Qubo (2019)
2019 Fiat Qubo
CarHunch analysed 108 real MOT records for the 2019 Fiat Qubo. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2019 Fiat Qubo is a reliable performer with an 88.4% first-time MOT pass rate—meaningfully better than the UK average of 80%—and a relatively low dangerous defect rate of 16.7%. This suggests the model avoids systemic safety issues that plague some rivals.
These Qubos are running light at a median of 13,844 miles, suggesting gentle urban use, though the average pulls to 22,790 miles due to a few higher-mileage examples. The 0.65 failures per vehicle and 3.2 advisories per vehicle indicate minor wear items crop up rather than major structural problems, so budget for routine maintenance but don't expect costly surprises early on.
What to check before buying a 2019 Fiat Qubo
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.
