2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · LY63 AEK

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile following a period of inconsistent upkeep. The most recent test on 6 July 2026 at 74,821 miles shows a pass, though the tester flagged worn, pitted, or scored front brake discs. This follows a clean pass in July 2025 at 71,318 miles, suggesting that while the vehicle is currently roadworthy, the braking components are entering a cycle of wear that requires attention. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,235 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, with the gap between the 2024 test at 61,737 miles and the 2025 test at 71,318 miles representing a standard annual interval. There are no signs of long-term storage or sudden surges in mileage that would suggest irregular use patterns. A prospective buyer should focus on the braking system and exhaust integrity. The record shows a recurring trend of brake disc and pad issues, with failures or advisories appearing in 2017, 2019, 2023, and 2026. The 2023 failure specifically highlighted noisy exhaust components and emissions issues, including high carbon monoxide and Lambda readings. Although these were resolved for the 2024 and 2025 tests, the recurrence of pitted discs in the most recent test indicates that the front braking assembly is a primary maintenance area. Inspection of the steering and tyre management is also advised. Previous failures in 2017 and 2020 involved steering rack gaiters and loose track rod end securing nuts, while multiple tests between 2019 and 2023 flagged tyres worn to or below the legal limit. While these appear to have been addressed, verifying the current condition of the suspension bushes and steering components would be prudent to ensure the previous mechanical instability has been fully rectified.
