2011 FORD FIESTA1.6L Diesel

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent record of passing its MOT tests. The most recent inspection on 2 June 2025 at 107,750 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting the car has been maintained to a standard that avoids common age-related failures. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a 15-year-old vehicle. Between June 2022 and June 2025, the odometer rose from 86,444 to 107,750 miles, averaging roughly 7,100 miles per year. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of dormancy that would suggest neglect or hidden deterioration. The single failure on 21 June 2022 was resolved immediately on the same day, which is common for minor administrative or easily rectified faults. Because the MOT history is unusually clean for a car of this vintage, the record does not highlight any recurring mechanical weaknesses. There are no mentions of corrosion, suspension bush wear, or brake disc degradation. However, the absence of advisories over several years can sometimes indicate a lenient testing regime rather than a perfect vehicle. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas the MOT often overlooks or that develop gradually. Check the condition of the timing belt and water pump, as these are critical service items for this engine that do not appear on MOT certificates. Inspect the underside for surface rust on the sills and chassis, and check the depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake pads to ensure consumables are not nearing the end of their life.
