1995 FORD FIESTA1.6L PETROL

The 1995 Ford Fiesta has a limited MOT history, with only five recorded tests spanning from 2006 to 2009. The most recent MOT on 2009-05-27 showed a pass at 51,475 miles, with no defects recorded. However, earlier entries reveal significant issues. A failure on 2007-06-05 included critical problems: a major exhaust leak, power steering hose seepage, and a Lambda reading outside limits. A second failure on 2007-06-06 listed similar concerns, suggesting recurring faults in the exhaust and power steering systems. These issues were resolved by 2008, as subsequent tests showed passes with no defects. The pattern indicates a potential risk of recurring mechanical faults, particularly in the exhaust and power steering. While the 2009 MOT showed no defects, the earlier failures highlight vulnerabilities that may resurface, especially given the vehicle’s age. The trend does not clearly show worsening or improvement, as the issues were addressed but not fully explained. The low mileage of 51,475 miles for a 31-year-old vehicle suggests either light use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can lead to component degradation not reflected in mileage alone.
