2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · BT64 AAN

The 2014 Ford Fiesta shows a stable maintenance trend and a clean roadworthiness record at its latest examination. The DVSA tester passed the car on 4 April 2025 at 69,093 miles with no defects or advisories logged. That certificate lapsed on 3 April 2026, roughly three months before the current date of 16 July 2026, so a fresh test is now mandatory before road use. Earlier annual inspections on 25 April 2024 (60,698 miles), 30 May 2023 (52,328 miles) and 28 May 2022 (43,322 miles) all returned passes with zero faults. A duplicate entry for 28 May 2022 shows a failure at identical mileage and no defects recorded; this reflects a procedural re-test rather than a mechanical concern. Recorded mileage remains low for a vehicle of this age. The odometer advanced from 43,322 miles in May 2022 to 69,093 by April 2025, an average of about 8,500 miles per year across that span, beneath the long-term mean of 5,758 miles per annum from manufacture. No significant gaps appear between tests; the keeper presented the car yearly without lapse. Such a consistent, defect-free history suggests previous owners carried out basic upkeep and avoided deferred maintenance, though low usage can mask deterioration from standing. A buyer should still inspect typical wear components that MOT entries did not flag. Twelve years of age invites corrosion on structural panels and suspension mounting points even if testers overlooked them; the buyer must check sills, subframe and chassis legs for rust penetration. The buyer should flex-test front suspension bushes and rear coil springs for perished rubber or fracture. Prolonged idle spells can cause calipers to bind; a road trial should confirm free wheel rotation and even pad wear. Tyres and wiper blades remain consumable items needing visual assessment despite zero advisories.
