2013 Fiat Panda 0.9L Petrol · CV13 DSE

The Fiat Panda presents as roadworthy following the January 2025 test cycle, with the most recent pass recorded on 14 January 2025 at 80,815 miles showing no defects. The maintenance trend is stable, as the vehicle has cleared every annual examination since January 2023 without advisories or recorded faults. The duplicate failure and pass entries on both 13 and 14 January 2025 and on 15 January 2024, each at identical mileages with no defects listed, indicate administrative re-tests rather than mechanical rectification. Annual mileage sits at a modest 6,217 miles against the car's 2013 build date, a figure consistent with light private use. The odometer moved only 1,745 miles between the January 2023 test at 77,570 miles and the January 2024 test at 79,070 miles, then a further 1,745 miles to the January 2025 reading of 80,815 miles. Such low yearly accumulation suggests prolonged standing periods are unlikely given the steady yearly increments, though the sparse record leaves little visibility of consumable replacement intervals. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's thirteen-year age and the MOT record's lack of advisory detail. The absence of corrosion or structural integrity flags across all three years is a positive sign for the chassis, but DVSA testers record only visible defects at the time of test. Verify the V5C logbook against the recorded mileages and confirm service history independently, as the clean MOT trail offers no evidence of neglected upkeep yet provides no proof of proactive maintenance either. Pre-purchase checks on exhaust emissions and tyre sidewall condition remain prudent given the low annual use.
