2011 FORD FIESTA1.4L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing. The most recent inspection conducted on 10 September 2025 at 38,999 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a failure occurred in September 2024, the immediate pass on the same day suggests the owner was proactive in rectifying the specific fault identified by the tester. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,600 miles per year. Between September 2022 and September 2025, the car covered only 3,145 miles, moving from 35,854 to 38,999 miles. This low usage suggests the mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine is minimal compared to average examples. However, such long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid breakdown which are not always reflected on the odometer. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-mileage age-. Check for cracking in tyre sidewalls, perished wiper blades, and degraded suspension bushes, as these often fail due to time rather than distance. Given the vehicle's age, inspect the structural integrity for corrosion on the sills and rear wheel arches, as the MOT record shows no surface rust. Additionally, verify the brake system for binding calipers or excessive rust on the brake discs, which is a common issue for vehicles that sit infrequently.
