About the 2007 FIAT MOTORCARAVAN
The 2007 FIAT MOTORCARAVAN is a large car with a 2800cc diesel engine. 55 of these vehicles were MOT tested in 2024, making it a rare model on UK roads. It ranks in the top 9% of all 2007 cars for reliability.
With an average of 37,149 miles at 17 years old, FIAT MOTORCARAVAN 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 FIAT MOTORCARAVAN Fuel Costs
The 2800cc diesel engine is on the larger side, so fuel won't be this car's strong point. 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.
What does it cost to own a 2007 FIAT MOTORCARAVAN?
Total estimated annual running cost is £1,750 (£146/month), broken down as £1245 fuel, £250 road tax, £55 MOT, and £200 predicted repairs. The low repair estimate reflects the excellent 91% pass rate. These cars rarely fail their MOT, so unexpected bills are less likely.

Buying a Used 2007 FIAT MOTORCARAVAN
