FORD FUSION2003 · 1.4L Petrol

The Ford Fusion passed its most recent MOT on 12 March 2026 at 100,414 miles with no defects recorded, confirming it currently meets roadworthy standards. The maintenance trend across the supplied records is stable, showing consecutive passes with no advisories. A solitary failure on 14 February 2025 at 98,163 miles listed no defects, and the vehicle passed again on 24 March 2025 at 98,170 miles, suggesting an administrative or unrecorded anomaly rather than a mechanical decline. The mileage pattern reflects light use for a 23-year-old vehicle. From the 1 February 2023 test at 91,825 miles, the car covered 3,264 miles to the 6 February 2024 test at 95,089 miles. It then added 3,074 miles by the February 2025 failure at 98,163 miles, and only 2,244 miles to the March 2026 pass at 100,414 miles. Annual accumulation sits near 2,200 to 3,300 miles, well below typical averages. The records show no rapid accumulation or extended gaps beyond standard yearly testing, though the history only spans three years. With no defects or advisories flagged in any test, the official record reveals no recurring mechanical or structural faults. Still, a buyer should physically inspect age-related corrosion on sills and subframes, check suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing, and examine brake discs and calipers for binding after long periods of low use. The tester recorded no exhaust emissions concerns, but a 23-year-old powertrain warrants scrutiny of rubber hoses and coolant system integrity. The clean MOT slate implies previous owners addressed any required work promptly, yet the February 2025 fail with no listed defect leaves a minor query over documentation accuracy. Prospective buyers should seek service invoices to corroborate the absence of hidden repairs.
