2002 FORD FIESTA1.2L Petrol

Roadworthiness as of the latest MOT on 1 November 2022 at 58,238 miles is confirmed as passed with no recorded defects; the maintenance trend appears stable, the earlier 2015 rear shock absorber leak was rectified and no further faults have emerged. The vehicle has accumulated 58,238 miles over 24 years, equating to roughly 2,400 miles per annum – a mileage well below the typical annual average for a 2002 model. Between the 2017 test at 53,865 miles and the 2022 test the mileage rose by just under 5,000 miles, indicating consistent, low‑intensity use. No abrupt spikes or prolonged gaps are evident; the record shows annual testing without missing a year. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the rear suspension, confirming that the off‑side shock absorber no longer leaks and that its mountings and surrounding bushings are free of corrosion. Front tyre tread should be measured, as advisories appeared in 2007, 2011 and 2014, to ensure sufficient depth and even wear. Brake discs and pads merit a visual and functional check, given the age of the vehicle, and a thorough inspection for any rust on the chassis or exhaust system will verify structural integrity.
