2006 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · LG56 AGV

The vehicle currently holds a clean MOT status following a successful test on 17 February 2026 at 76,413 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of recent instability regarding minor electrical and auxiliary components, though the most recent result suggests these issues have been addressed. The record shows a pattern of failures for non-critical items, such as the stop lamp failure in February 2024 and the headlamp aim and indicator colour issues in February 2025, which were subsequently rectified to achieve pass results. The mileage profile indicates very light usage for a 20-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,821 miles per year. The data shows a consistent, low-mileage progression from 48,760 miles in October 2014 to the current 76,413 miles. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long intervals between uses can sometimes lead to secondary issues like perished rubber components or seized calipers. The progression between 2024 and 2026 shows a slight increase in annual distance compared to previous years, but the vehicle remains well below the typical mileage for its age. A buyer should pay close attention to the lighting and electrical systems, as the record shows recurring issues with indicator colours and bulb functionality. The February 2025 test flagged an insecure PAS pipe, so checking the integrity of auxiliary sensor lines and mounting points is advisable. Although the 2018 failure for broken front coil springs was resolved, any vehicle of this age with low usage should undergo a thorough inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of corrosion or fatigue. The history also notes a discoloured indicator advisory in February 2023, which evolved into a failure in 2025. This suggests a tendency for plastic lens degradation or improper part replacement. While no major structural corrosion or brake system failures appear in the recent history, the low mileage pattern warrants a physical check of all fluid levels and the condition of tyres to ensure they have not suffered from flat-spotting or age-related cracking during periods of inactivity.
