2011 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · J70 JBX

The 2011 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 September 2025 at 28,145 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes across the previous four years. Annual mileage sits well below typical norms for a fifteen-year-old car. The record shows 21,581 miles in September 2021, rising to 22,478 in September 2022, 23,851 in September 2023, 25,523 in September 2024, and 28,145 in September 2025. That equates to roughly 1,300 to 2,600 miles added each year, or about 1,876 annually. No gaps appear in the testing sequence and no sudden accumulation occurs. Such low use over a long period suggests the car spent extended intervals stationary, which can allow corrosion and perished rubber components to develop even where the tester found nothing to advise. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the sills, subframe, and suspension mounting points, since standing vehicles often hide structural rust that a pass with no advisories will not capture. The tester recorded no worn suspension bushes, coil spring fractures, or binding calipers across the five tests, yet age alone warrants checking brake disc condition and flexible hose integrity where moisture ingress may have acted unseen. Given the clean history and light use, the mechanical risk reads as low provided the next owner keeps annual mileage modest and maintains regular start-up cycles. Pre-purchase checks should confirm tyre sidewall cracking from age rather than wear, and verify the exhaust emissions remain within limits given the infrequently warmed engine.
