2007 Fiat Panda 1.2L Petrol · WV57 BAU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent testing data. The latest MOT test conducted on 9 June 2025 at 86,577 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating the car currently meets minimum legal safety standards. While a failure occurred in late May 2024 at 83,801 miles, the vehicle was rectified and retested just six days later, suggesting the previous owner was proactive regarding immediate repair requirements rather than allowing faults to persist. The mileage pattern is notably low for a nineteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year. The data shows a significant gap between July 2022 at 66,554 miles and May 2023 at 77,056 miles, where the car covered over 10,000 miles in a short period. Since then, usage has slowed considerably, with only roughly 9,500 miles recorded since the June 2025 test. This low annual mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine but increases the risk of degradation in rubber components and seals due to age and potential inactivity. Given the age and low usage, a physical inspection must focus on structural integrity, specifically the chassis and sills, where Fiat vehicles of this era are prone to corrosion. Despite the lack of recent advisories, the buyer should examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or fatigue, as these perish over time regardless of miles driven. The brakes should also be checked for seizing or pitting on the discs, which frequently occurs on vehicles that sit for long periods between uses.
