FORD FIESTA2011 · 1.4L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last several years. The most recent inspection conducted on 31 July 2025 at 105,301 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, despite an initial failure on the same day. This suggests a specific issue was identified and rectified immediately before the re-test, as the vehicle has maintained a clean sheet across the three consecutive passes preceding it. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent with the vehicle's fifteen-year age, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. Between February 2022 at 102,758 miles and July 2025 at 105,301 miles, the car covered only 2,543 miles, indicating periods of low usage or extended storage. This low annual mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on drivetrain components and engine internals, though the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts like suspension bushes and seals which are not always captured by a standard MOT test. Given the lack of recorded advisories in the history, a physical inspection should focus on age-related degradation that the MOT might miss. Check the structural integrity for corrosion on the sills and rear wheel arches, which is common for Fiest of this era. The low mileage also warrants a check of brake discs for pitting or seized calipers, as infrequent use can cause components to bond. Inspect the tyres for sidewall cracking, as the age of the rubber often exceeds its functional life despite sufficient tread depth.
