FORD FIESTA1996 · 1.1L PETROL

The 1996 Ford Fiesta has a recorded mileage of 46,508 miles, which is very low for its age (30 years old). This suggests the vehicle may have seen limited use or long periods of inactivity, which can lead to issues like corrosion, rubber component deterioration, and mechanical stiffness. The low mileage does not necessarily indicate excellent condition, as under-use can exacerbate wear on certain systems. The most recent MOT entry is from 2012, over 14 years ago. Since then, there is no recorded MOT history, making it impossible to assess the vehicle’s condition trend. The 2012 MOT included both failures and passes, with recurring issues such as corrosion on suspension mountings, brake components, and body panels. Defects related to brake pad wear, CV joint gaiters, and suspension bushes were noted, indicating potential ongoing risks. Corrosion appears to be a consistent concern, particularly on suspension mountings and body panels. The 2012 MOT highlighted "slight corrosion" on multiple body areas and "corroded" suspension components, while earlier entries from 2011 and 2010 mentioned deteriorated rubber bushes and brake disc scoring. These issues suggest the vehicle may have been exposed to harsh environments or not maintained adequately over time.
