Description
Fiat Multipla 2005 1.9 JTD in red/burgendy. 56,738 miles but will rise. 2 previous owners. 2 keys.
Good points
MOT until 17th April 2026.
4 new tyres as of 20th July with an additional one in boot with plenty life left.
Reliable JTD engine is a dream to drive. These engines regularly last 200km+ and this one has not been abused. That being said, I have not changed belt nor did previous owner.
6 Seater with easy removable rear chairs & nice blue interior
Bad points
Handbrake is functioning but could be addressed as it freezes over in winter.
After a bout of heavy rain, the gear stick occasionally becomes sticky - perhaps just a lubrication issue on shift linkage(?)
Radio screen is fuzzy but radio still works.
Plenty creaks as you're driving but it is a 20 year old vehicle driving on some rotten roads.
Other than that, the engine feels superb and the car is immensely practical with its size and layout.
About the car's history
I am the second owner and bought in Feb 2021. First owner was an elderly gentleman from London who did 10,000 gentle miles in 16 years. It was his second car which he used to drive his grandkids around. He had to sell as his eyesight was deteriorating - hence the many bumps & scrapes.
I've enjoyed 40,000 miles over 4.5 years and has been routinely self-serviced by my Uncle. Very clean MOT history and very little rust for its age having spent most of its life in South London.
Plenty life left in this ugly beast.
