2020 Fiat Fiorino Tecnico Mjetii Ss — MOT failures & pass rate
317 MOT tests on the 2020 Fiat Fiorino Tecnico Mjetii Ss are in this dataset, and 84.2% of them passed. Against all cars of a similar age (9.4% fail rate), the 2020 Fiorino Tecnico Mjetii Ss comes out 6.4pp worse. Failures cluster in lighting & signalling, emissions & environmental and visibility.
What the MOT record shows
No single area dominates — lighting & signalling (7.6%) and emissions & environmental (6.9%) are close, so failures are spread across several systems rather than one weak point.
At component level the recurring items are headlamp aim, wipers and malfunction indicator lamp — headlamp aim alone was recorded 18 times.
Condition tracks the odometer closely. Failures run at 12.5% in the 0-30k band and 19.4% in the 90-120k band, a 6.9-point spread.
Tyres is the most common advisory, noted on 24.3% of tests — work that passed today but is likely due soon.
The trend is worsening — 10.3% of tests failed in 2023 against 17.0% in 2025, the usual pattern as a fleet ages.

What to check before buying a 2020 Fiorino Tecnico Mjetii Ss
The failure pattern for this year is specific enough to inspect against: lighting & signalling accounted for 7.6% of tests. Start there.
- Lighting & signalling (7.6% of tests): Often a cheap bulb, but persistent issues can mean wiring or corrosion in the units. Typical repair: £10–£150.
- Emissions & environmental (6.9% of tests): More common on older diesels (DPF/EGR) — can be expensive; check for warning lights and smoke. Typical repair: £100–£600.
- Visibility (6.0% of tests): Wipers, washers, mirrors and screen damage — usually inexpensive, but check for chips in the driver's line of sight. Typical repair: £15–£150.
Repair costs are rough UK ballpark ranges to set expectations, not quotes — actual prices vary widely by car, parts and garage.
