FORD FIESTA2011 · 1.6L Petrol

The 2011 Ford Fiesta exhibits a stable roadworthiness trend, with all five MOT tests from 2019 to 2023 recording no defects. The most recent April 2023 test at 88,349 miles confirmed compliance, indicating consistent maintenance. No recurring issues or structural concerns were flagged across the six-year history, suggesting the vehicle has been well cared for. The absence of advisories or failures implies the previous owner prioritized regular servicing, though the low mileage relative to age warrants scrutiny of potential storage-related wear. The vehicle’s mileage of 88,349 miles at 15 years old equates to approximately 5,890 miles annually, significantly below the typical usage for its age. The MOT records show annual testing from 2019 to 2023, with the 2019 test at 74,749 miles followed by a 6,125-mile increase by 2020. This suggests periods of reduced activity, which could accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes or rubber seals. The lack of gaps in the MOT history is positive, but the low mileage may mask drivetrain or brake wear that would typically manifest at higher usage levels. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for aged bushes or coil springs, as prolonged inactivity can cause stiffness or failure. The exhaust system requires scrutiny for corrosion, particularly around the catalytic converter, given the vehicle’s age. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or binding, as low-mileage vehicles may develop seized components. Underbody corrosion, especially in wheel arches or sills, is another risk due to potential moisture exposure during storage. These checks will confirm whether the vehicle’s maintenance history aligns with its mechanical condition.
