2008 Fiat Panda 1.1L Petrol · K17 TBA

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state based on the most recent MOT pass on 24 October 2025 at 65,619 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently passed its tests over the last three years without any recorded defects or advisories. This indicates a vehicle that meets the minimum legal safety standards and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is exceptionally low for an 18 year old car, averaging roughly 3,646 miles per year. Between 21 October 2023 and 24 October 2025, the odometer increased by only 2,312 miles. Such low usage suggests the car has spent significant time stationary or has been used exclusively for short, local trips. While the lack of wear on the drivetrain is a positive, long periods of inactivity can lead to perished rubber components and fluid degradation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas prone to deterioration from low mileage and age. Check for perished suspension bushes, cracked tyre sidewalls, and signs of brake disc corrosion or binding calipers. The absence of MOT advisories is encouraging, but the 2008 chassis remains susceptible to structural rust, particularly around the sills and floor pan. Inspect these areas thoroughly for surface corrosion that may not have reached the threshold of an MOT failure. The record shows two instances where the vehicle failed shortly before passing, specifically on 18 October 2024 and 20 October 2025. Because the DVSA record lists no specific defects for these failures, it suggests the issues were minor and rectified quickly. Verify that the engine oil and coolant have been changed recently, as time-based degradation is a higher risk than mileage-based wear for this specific vehicle.
