2004 Fiat Panda 1.2L Petrol · LY04 ACU

The vehicle appears to be in a stable condition regarding its recent MOT history. The most recent test on 21 October 2025 at 75,191 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a pattern of successful testing, despite two instances where the vehicle failed immediately prior to a pass. The 2024 failure at 68,582 miles and the 2023 failure at 64,454 miles suggest minor non-compliance issues that were rectified quickly, as the vehicle passed in both subsequent instances. The recorded mileage of 75,191 miles is notably low for a 22-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,418 miles per year. This low annual usage suggests the car has seen light use or has spent significant periods stationary. While this reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it can sometimes lead to issues with perished rubber components or seized calipers due to lack of movement. The data shows consistent annual testing, indicating the owner has maintained a regular inspection schedule. A physical inspection should focus on components that typically suffer during long periods of inactivity. You should check for signs of corrosion on the underbody and exhaust system, as well as the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs. Given the low mileage, inspect the tyres for age-related cracking or flat spots, even if the tread depth remains sufficient. The absence of advisories in the most recent tests is a positive indicator for the vehicle's current state. However, because the vehicle has failed twice on minor points, a thorough check of the braking system for binding calipers or unevenly worn discs is advisable. Ensuring the vehicle has been serviced regularly despite the low mileage will be key to confirming its mechanical integrity.
