2016 Fiat Panda 1.2L Petrol · CP16 BCY

This 2016 Fiat Panda has a relatively low mileage of 57,359 miles for its age, averaging roughly 5,700 miles per year. While this suggests lighter use, low mileage on a ten-year-old car can sometimes indicate long periods of sitting, which can lead to rubber degradation and seized components. The MOT history shows a recurring pattern of maintenance issues, specifically regarding tyres and exhaust components. The vehicle has consistently struggled with tyre wear, with multiple entries for tyres being near the legal limit or having exposed cords. Most recently, the 2025 MOT passed with a defect noted on the central exhaust mounting, a fault that was also present in the 2024 inspection. The overall condition trend appears stable but shows signs of reactive rather than proactive maintenance. While the car has passed its tests, the repetition of the exhaust mounting defect suggests that repairs may only be addressing the bare minimum required to pass, rather than fixing the underlying cause. Because the mileage is low, you should be wary of age-related deterioration in rubber parts that isn't reflected in the odometer reading. The history of tyre issues and exhaust mount defects points toward a need for closer inspection of the vehicle's underside and running gear. Before purchasing, you should first inspect the condition of all tyres and the underside of the car, specifically checking the exhaust mounting and the condition of the suspension bushes to ensure previous failures have been properly rectified.
