2018 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · NU18 AEE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 4 July 2025 at 116,473 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to March 2022, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is high for an eight year old vehicle, averaging over 14,500 miles per year. A significant surge in usage occurred between June 2023 and June 2024, where the odometer rose from 65,855 to 91,306 miles. Another substantial increase of 25,167 miles took place between June 2024 and July 2025. This high-intensity use typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and suspension bushings. Despite the clean MOT record, the high mileage necessitates a physical inspection of specific wear items. A buyer should check the condition of the brake discs and pads, as the rapid mileage increase often leads to premature thinning. The suspension should be scrutinized for play in the joints and the state of the coil springs, as these components endure more stress under high-mileage cycles. The record shows a failure on 26 June 2023 at 65,795 miles, though the specific defect was not detailed. Since the vehicle passed the following day, it was likely a minor rectification. Given the age and usage, checking for underside corrosion and ensuring the engine oil and timing belt intervals have been adhered to is essential, as the MOT test does not validate service history or internal engine health.
