About the 2007 CI MOTORHOME FIAT
The 2007 CI MOTORHOME FIAT is a large car with a 2800cc diesel engine. 46 of these vehicles were MOT tested in 2024, making it a rare model on UK roads. Among all cars from 2007, the average MOT pass rate is 73%, and this model falls short of that benchmark.
With an average of 48,920 miles at 17 years old, CI MOTORHOME FIAT owners tend to use this car less than the typical driver. Very low mileage could mean the car has been garaged or used only for short trips, which can cause its own issues like battery drain and moisture buildup.
2007 CI MOTORHOME FIAT Fuel Costs

Expect around 40 mpg in mixed driving, which works out to roughly £1,245 per year at current diesel prices of 148p per litre (based on 7,400 miles per year). Diesel cars of this age should have their DPF (diesel particulate filter) checked, as replacements can be costly.
