2019 Ford Fiesta 1.1L Petrol · BX15 AAC

The 2019 Ford Fiesta presents a clean MOT history, with the most recent test on 6 June 2025 at 42,609 miles passing without any defects. This follows a consistent pattern of compliance over the past three years, with no advisories or failures recorded since the 2024-06-12 test—despite one minor administrative duplication (a passed and failed entry on the same date, likely a clerical error). The absence of recurring faults suggests the vehicle has either been well-maintained or luckily avoided common wear issues. That said, the 12-month gap between tests (June 2025 to June 2024) is technically within DVSA tolerance, but it raises a question: was the car stored or driven sparingly? Without further service records, this remains speculative, though the lack of defects mitigates concerns. The Fiesta’s mileage accumulation— 6,087 miles per year —is broadly average for its age, though the jump from 23,859 miles in June 2022 to 31,214 miles in June 2023 (a 7,355-mile annual increase ) suggests either heavier use or a backlog of unrecorded mileage. The subsequent drop to 34,964 miles by June 2024 (just 3,750 miles added ) is unusual and may indicate a period of disuse, potential odometer tampering, or an error in logging. Given the sparse data, a buyer should verify the odometer’s accuracy and cross-check service intervals against typical wear patterns for this model. Given the MOT’s clean bill of health, no structural or mechanical red flags have emerged. However, a prospective buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension components —specifically the front lower arms, track rod ends, and coil springs—given the Fiesta’s reputation for bushings degrading around 40,000–50,000 miles . Brake system integrity should also be checked, particularly the rear calipers and discs, as binding or uneven wear often appears between tests. While no corrosion or exhaust emissions failures are recorded, a close look at the sill seals, wheel arches, and underbody is prudent, especially if the car has spent time in damp conditions. Finally, the tyre condition —though not MOT-tested—should be verified, as tread depth and uneven wear can reveal handling issues not captured in the test.
