FORD FIESTA2017 · 1.0L Petrol

The 2017 Ford Fiesta exhibits a stable roadworthiness record, with no defects recorded in its last five MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-07-15 inspection at 51,994 miles. All prior tests from 2020 to 2024 also showed passes, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical issues. The absence of advisories or failures across this period suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained, with no recurring faults in critical systems such as brakes, suspension, or emissions. The mileage of 51,994 miles over nine years equates to approximately 5,777 miles annually, a low figure that may reflect infrequent use or periods of inactivity. Notably, the gap between the 2020-12-15 test (25,074 miles) and the 2022-07-06 test (37,184 miles) spans 19 months, during which the vehicle gained 12,110 miles. Subsequent annual tests show steady progression, with 37,184 to 40,935 miles (2022–2023), then 47,273 miles (2024), and finally 51,994 miles (2025). This pattern suggests intermittent use rather than regular driving, which could affect components like tyres, fluids, and electrical systems if the car was stored for extended periods. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for signs of corrosion, particularly in the underbody and chassis, given the low mileage and potential for stagnant fluid systems. Check the suspension bushes and coil springs for dry-rot or wear, as these can degrade without regular use. The brake system, including discs and calipers, should be tested for binding or uneven wear, as infrequent operation may lead to sticking components. Additionally, verify the exhaust system for rust or leaks, as moisture accumulation during inactivity could compromise integrity. No major structural issues are indicated in the MOT history, but physical inspection remains essential to confirm the vehicle’s condition.
