1990 FORD SIERRA1.8L Petrol

The 1990 Ford Sierra passed its most recent MOT on 28 September 2023 at 22,542 miles, recording zero defects and confirming roadworthiness. No defects were logged in the preceding tests from 2021 through 2023, indicating a consistent maintenance record with no clear trend of worsening or improving condition. The recorded mileage has risen only modestly, from 22,319 miles in October 2021 to 22,542 miles in September 2023, a gain of 223 miles over roughly two years, or about 111 miles per year. The intervals between tests are regular, with no evidence of rapid mileage accumulation or long standing periods that would suggest neglect. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify that the rear brakes are not binding, and examine the brake discs for scoring or corrosion, as these components are commonly scrutinised in MOTs despite the clean record. Check the chassis for structural rust, especially around the front subframe and wheel arches, and assess the exhaust system for leaks or excessive corrosion. Given the low annual mileage, the vehicle may have been used lightly or stored for extended periods, so a thorough visual and functional check of the drivetrain, cooling system, and tyre condition is advisable before purchase.
