2013 Fiat Panda 1.2L Diesel · DC13 AMO

The 2013 Fiat Panda presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 August 2025 at 45,780 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the three prior passing tests from 2022 to 2024 also recorded no advisories. The only blemish is a failure on 29 August 2023 at 44,440 miles, reversed two days later on 31 August 2023 at 44,441 miles with a clean pass and no defects listed, suggesting an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a genuine fault. Mileage sits at 45,780 against an August 2025 test, equating to roughly 3,500 miles per year over the vehicle's 13-year life. The records show gentle accumulation: 42,790 miles in August 2022, 44,441 in August 2023, 45,573 in September 2024, and 45,780 in August 2025. No rapid jumps or dormant gaps appear. The clean sheet across five years implies the previous keeper carried out basic statutory testing but left no documented evidence of consumable renewal such as tyres, brake discs, or suspension bushes. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as the MOT record logs no advisories yet low-mileage Pandas of this era are prone to rear sill and subframe rust where moisture traps form. The brake calipers, coil springs, and suspension bushes warrant hands-on checks for binding or fatigue not captured by a pass result. Given the 2023 failure with no defect cited, confirm the DVSA reason code with the test station before purchase.
