2016 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · CR55 AGR

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-03-02 at 66,020 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but a prior failed test on the same date at 66,012 miles also showed no defects. This inconsistency suggests either a data entry error or a procedural issue, though the latest result confirms roadworthiness. Over the past two years, the car has maintained a stable trend, with no recurring mechanical or structural faults flagged in the MOT history. The absence of advisories or failures in prior tests indicates consistent maintenance, though the March 2026 failure remains unexplained. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 10-year-old vehicle, averaging 6,602 miles annually. The 2024-02-23 test at 47,630 miles showed a pass, followed by a failure at 47,625 miles just five days later, which may reflect a temporary technical anomaly. Subsequent tests in 2025 and 2026 demonstrate regular intervals and no significant gaps, suggesting the owner adhered to scheduled inspections. The car’s mileage does not indicate excessive wear on consumables or major components, though the 2025-02-24 test at 56,558 miles showed a 9,000-mile jump from 2024, which could hint at increased usage but lacks supporting defect data. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these are common wear points in older Fords. The brake system, particularly rear calipers and discs, warrants scrutiny, as binding or uneven wear could go undetected in MOTs without dynamic testing. Exhaust emissions and structural integrity should also be verified, as the March 2026 failure, though unrecorded, may have involved non-urgent issues. No major corrosion or safety-critical faults are evident from the records, but a hands-on check is essential to confirm the vehicle’s condition.
