1992 FORD FIESTA1.4L PETROL

The vehicle has no recorded MOT tests after 2009, meaning its current condition cannot be verified through official records. The most recent MOT was in December 2009, when it failed due to excessive corrosion in suspension component mountings, front body structure, and brake pipes. Earlier 2009 and 2008 entries show recurring corrosion issues, including pitted brake discs, deteriorated suspension bushes, and corroded coil springs. These defects indicate long-term exposure to environmental factors and potential structural weakening. The vehicle’s mileage of 45,408 miles over 34 years equates to roughly 1,336 miles per year, which is very low for its age. This suggests either light use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate corrosion and component degradation. Low mileage does not guarantee mechanical integrity, especially when combined with documented corrosion in critical areas like suspension mountings, brake systems, and body structures. The MOT history reveals a consistent pattern of corrosion-related defects, particularly in suspension components and vehicle structure. While some issues were classified as “slight” or “not resulting in excessive movement,” others, such as excessive corrosion in suspension mountings and brake pipes, pose safety risks. No recent tests exist to confirm whether these issues have worsened or been addressed.
