FORD FIESTA2014 · 1.0L Petrol

This vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 12 January 2026 at 179,272 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. The absence of advisories in the last three testing cycles suggests the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without lingering mechanical concerns. The mileage is high for a twelve year old vehicle, averaging nearly 15,000 miles per year. The record shows consistent and rapid usage, with 12,497 miles added between 15 January 2025 and 12 January 2026. This level of accumulation typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and suspension bushes, though the clean MOT history suggests these have been managed or replaced as needed. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear items that often escape MOT detection until they become critical failures. Given the 179,272 mile odometer reading, check for play in the steering rack and the condition of the engine mounts. Inspect the brake discs for thinning and the suspension coil springs for hairline fractures or corrosion, as these are common failure points for high-mileage Fiestas. Verify the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements. While the MOT record is clean, these internal engine components do not trigger MOT failures until a catastrophic breakdown occurs. Ensure the oil is clean and the exhaust system is free from significant corrosion, as high-mileage vehicles often show structural degradation in the underbody that may not yet be severe enough to fail a test.
