2008 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · MK08 AEJ

This vehicle is in an exceptional state of roadworthiness with a perfectly stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 10 March 2026 at 17,492 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows an identical pattern of clean passes dating back to March 2022, indicating a car that has been kept in a high state of repair or has seen very little demanding use. The mileage is remarkably low for an 18 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 972 miles per year. The progression is consistent and linear, increasing by approximately 500 miles annually between the March 2022 test at 15,507 miles and the March 2026 test at 17,492 miles. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or gaps in the testing history to suggest periods of neglect or undocumented ownership changes. While the MOT record is flawless, the extremely low usage suggests the car may have suffered from long periods of standing. A buyer should specifically check for perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, which can crack due to age regardless of tread depth. It is also advisable to inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting and verify that the battery and fluids have been maintained to prevent stagnation. The lack of any advisories regarding structural integrity or corrosion over the last five years is a positive indicator. However, given the age of the chassis, a physical inspection of the underbody for rust remains prudent. The record implies a previous owner who prioritised preventative care, as the vehicle has avoided the common wear-and-tear failures typical of the Ford Fiesta platform.
