2020 Ford Fiesta 1.5L Petrol · DT08 DYL

The 2020 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 December 2025 at 22,136 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests show the same clean outcome. The December 2024 entry shows a fail and pass on the same day at 17,595 miles, but the tester logged no defects, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Recorded mileage sits low for a six-year-old car. The vehicle covered 14,444 miles by 5 December 2023, rose to 17,595 miles by 4 December 2024, and reached 22,136 miles by 5 December 2025. That averages roughly 3,700 miles per year. The sparse, clean record gives no evidence of rapid accumulation or neglected intervals; the low use suggests light commuting or extended standing periods. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean sheet. Low mileage combined with possible long standing invites perished suspension bushes, flat-spotted tyres, and corroded brake discs from moisture. The duplicate December 2024 fail-pass with zero advisories means the DVSA record offers no warning on coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity. Verify underseal condition and sill corrosion before purchase. Check for binding calipers after the car has sat unused. Confirm the owner rotated consumables such as wiper blades and tyres given the minimal annual coverage.
