2008 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · CK58 AEP

This Ford Fiesta presents a highly stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 17 October 2024 at 126,364 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2021, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a standard that consistently meets DVSA requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for an 18 year old vehicle. Between the November 2021 test at 117,395 miles and the October 2024 test at 126,364 miles, the car covered 8,969 miles over nearly three years. This low annual usage suggests the vehicle has spent significant time stationary or has been used for very short trips, which can sometimes mask underlying issues like perished rubber components or battery degradation. The absence of advisories across multiple years is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. While the record is clean, a buyer should still physically inspect the chassis and sills for corrosion, as surface rust does not always trigger an MOT failure until it compromises structural integrity. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components often degrade due to age regardless of the low mileage recorded since 2021. Verify the service history to ensure the oil and filters were changed regularly despite the low annual mileage. The failure on 17 November 2022, which was resolved within six days for the pass on 23 November 2022, is not detailed in the provided data but appears to have been a minor rectification. Focus your physical inspection on the brake discs for pitting and the tyres for age-related cracking.
