2018 Fiat Panda 1.2L Petrol · GN68 HTU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a history of clean passes over the last three years. The most recent MOT test conducted in January 2026 at 82,307 miles resulted with no defects or advisories recorded, indicating a high level of current mechanical compliance. This follows a period of consistent performance after a minor setback earlier, suggesting that the previous owner addressed identified issues promptly to maintain the vehicle. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,300 miles per annum. Between January 2025 and January 2026, the car covered 6,184 miles, showing a steady usage pattern rather than erratic driving or long periods of neglect. The gap between the January 2023 test at 65,537 miles and the January 2024 test at 70,116 miles confirms this annual interval aligns with standard commuting requirements. Despite the lack of recent advisories, a buyer should focus on common wear points typical for this model at this mileage bracket. A physical inspection of the suspension components, specifically the front bushes and coil springs, is necessary as these often show degradation before appearing on an MOT certificate. The braking system should be checked for signs of binding calipers or uneven disc wear, as the record does not explicitly detail these components in recent tests. The single failure in January 2023 at 65,537 miles indicates a specific fault that required rectification prior to the retest. Since the subsequent three tests have returned no defects, the structural integrity of the chassis and the emissions system appear well-maintained. Verifying the condition of the tyres and the underside of the vehicle will ensure no hidden corrosion is developing despite the clean digital history.
