2020 Ford Fiesta 1.5L Petrol · BU70 AHA

The 2020 Ford Fiesta holds a valid MOT pass as of 6 December 2025 at 17,661 miles, confirming roadworthiness at the time of testing. The maintenance trend shows a shift from a clean sheet in November 2024 to recurring defects in December 2025, indicating a worsening pattern for rear-end components. The most recent test flagged bilateral rear brake disc wear with pitting and scoring, alongside perishing rear tyres, while the prior year recorded no defects and the year before noted only child-seat obstructions and a near-legal front tyre. The mileage profile is consistent with very low annual usage, averaging roughly 2,944 miles per year over the six-year lifespan, with the odometer advancing from 11,785 miles in December 2023 to 14,274 miles in November 2024 and then to 17,661 miles by December 2025. The gap between the 2024 and 2025 tests spans 12 months and covers 3,387 miles, a slightly higher annual rate than the preceding 2,489-mile interval, though still well below typical usage. The low cumulative mileage suggests the vehicle has seen light duty or extended storage periods, which can accelerate rubber degradation and brake corrosion even when driven sparingly. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the rear brake discs for thickness and lateral run-out, as the December 2025 test recorded both offside and nearside discs as worn, pitted, or scored under advisory 1.1.14(a)(ii), and the 2024 pass left no record of such wear, suggesting progression within a single year. The perishing rear tyres noted in the same test require close examination of sidewall cracking and tread depth, since low annual mileage can mask dry-rot damage that compromises tyre integrity. The 2023 record showed a front tyre worn close to the legal limit, implying that previous owners may have neglected routine tyre rotation or replacement, so checking the remaining tread on all tyres and the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for age-related cracking is prudent.
