FORD FUSION2008 · 1.4L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent passing record over the last several years. The most recent test on 25 November 2021 at 88,974 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following an initial failure on the same day. This immediate rectification suggests a minor issue was addressed quickly before retesting. Since 2018, the car has maintained a clean history without recurring advisories or failures. The" pattern is notably low for an 18-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between January 2018 (73,114 miles) and December 2020 (74,564 miles), where the car covered only about 1,450 miles in two years. The subsequent increase of 14,410 miles in the following year indicates a return to regular use. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid breakdown. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the structural integrity, specifically the sills and wheel arches, as the 2008 Ford Fusion is prone to corrosion over time. Because the MOT history shows no advisories, check for way way bushes or worn artwork springs that may have degraded due to age rather than mileage. Additionally examine the braking system for seized calipers or rusted discs, as low-use vehicles often suffer from brake components sticking during periods of inactivity.
