Our Verdict
A dependable budget option with a consis
Focus your enquiries on the advisories noted in March 2024. Specifically, ask for proof that the inner tyre wear and the noisy nearside rear wheel bearing were rectified. Because this vehicle has exceeded 130,000 miles, you should check the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements, as these are critical maintenance items for this engine.
The 1.368L petrol engine is designed for city efficiency, though fuel economy will be typical for a vehicle of this age. Maintenance costs for the Panda are generally low due to the widespread availability of parts and the simplicity of the mechanical layout.
Carefully inspect all four tyres for uneven wear on the inner edges, as this was a specific advisory in 2024 and can indicate alignment issues. During a test drive, listen for any droning or humming from the rear axle to ensure the wheel bearing issue has been resolved. Additionally, check the headlamps and suspension arms, as these are listed as top failure reasons for this model in aggregate data.
This grey 1.4L petrol Fiat Panda has recorded five consecutive MOT passes between 2022 and 2026. It has covered 132,478 miles, which is significantly higher than the model average, but the most recent test in March 2026 was passed with no defects recorded. The vehicle's record is relatively clean, with only one year of advisories in the last five years.
The Fiat Panda shows a respectable average MOT pass rate of 76.9% across nearly 100,000 analysed vehicles.
