2014 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · HK14 ACY

The Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 3 February 2026 at 91,693 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Across the available history from 2023 to 2026, the vehicle cleared every examination without advisories, indicating consistent upkeep. The isolated anomaly of a failure on 31 January 2023 at 67,322 miles followed by a pass the same day, both with no defects listed, points to an administrative irregularity rather than mechanical deficiency. Mileage progression aligns broadly with the vehicle's twelve-year age. The records show 67,322 miles at the January 2023 test, rising to 72,938 by 23 February 2024, then 80,635 on 13 February 2025, and 91,693 on 3 February 2026. This equates to roughly 5,600 miles in the first interval and about 11,000 in the latest year, a moderate acceleration but still within typical private-use bounds. No testing gaps exist across the four-year span, and the clean sheets suggest the prior keepers addressed consumable wear before each annual assessment. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and suspension components despite the unblemished MOT trail. Ford Fiestas of this era commonly suffer from corroding rear axle beams and degraded suspension bushes that a pass without advisories may not highlight if within tolerance. The tester recorded no brake disc or caliper concerns, yet verifying pad thickness and binding calipers remains prudent. The duplicate test entry from 31 January 2023 warrants a check against the DVSA portal to confirm no suppressed defect. The documentary evidence implies a cared-for example with no recurring faults or worsening trends. Prospective owners must validate the odometer reading and scrutinise tyres, wiper blades, and exhaust emissions in person, as these minor items can degrade between tests. The absence of flagged corrosion or mechanical risk in the official record supports a favourable verdict, contingent on a routine pre-purchase examination.
