2016 Fiat Panda 0.9L Petrol · ML16 WPE

The 2016 Fiat Panda presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 10 April 2025 at 46,327 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 28 March 2024 at 44,435 miles confirms no outstanding advisories have carried through. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical pattern across its five-year MOT span. Recorded mileage sits at 46,327 against a ten-year-old chassis, equating to roughly 4,633 miles per year. The DVSA log tracks gentle accumulation: 39,728 miles on 21 April 2022, 42,181 on 19 April 2023, then 44,435 at the March 2024 tests, reaching 46,327 by April 2025. Such low annual use implies extended standing periods, though the sparse, defect-free history gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repair. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion, since low-mileage cars left idle often develop perishing rubber and surface rust unseen in a pass-only record. The failed test on 26 March 2024 at 44,435 miles listed no defects, with a pass issued two days later, suggesting an administrative or equipment fault at the first centre rather than a mechanical defect. Given the clean advisory sheet, focus the viewing on brake disc condition, handbrake travel, and exhaust emissions under cold start. The previous owner clearly kept basic statutory testing current, but MOT passes alone do not certify component life remaining on a lightly used 2016 hatchback.
