FORD FIESTA2011 · 1.4L Petrol

The vehicle maintains a clean bill of health according to the most recent MOT certificate issued on 5 February 2026. The inspection record shows a stable trend of compliance, with the car passing its last three annual tests without any recorded defects or advisories. While the vehicle failed its initial inspections in January 2025 and February 2026, these failures appear administrative or procedural rather than mechanical, as no specific faults were logged against the chassis or powertrain. The recorded mileage of 51,504 miles over fifteen years reflects a low-usage pattern, averaging approximately 3,434 miles annually. This consistent, light accumulation suggests the car has not been subjected to the heavy wear associated with high-mileage motorway commuting. The lack of recurring advisories for suspension components, brake wear, or exhaust system corrosion indicates that the vehicle has likely been kept in a garage or sheltered environment, avoiding the accelerated degradation often seen in neglected low-mileage examples. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the effects of long-term standing rather than active mechanical failure. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from binding calipers due to infrequent use. Verify the condition of the rubber suspension bushes and engine mounts, as these components perish with age regardless of the odometer reading. Check the inner sidewalls of the tyres for signs of cracking or perishing, as these may be original or aged beyond their effective lifespan despite possessing sufficient tread depth.
