2008 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · SK58 AZL

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 17 February 2026, indicating a stable and clean roadworthiness status. While the record shows a failed test on the same day as the pass, the absence of recorded defects suggests a minor administrative error or a transient issue that was immediately rectified. The lack of advisories over the past four years points to a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard, with no recurring mechanical failures or structural concerns flagged by testers. Accumulating approximately 62,579 miles over eighteen years results in an average of roughly 3,477 miles per annum, which is exceptionally low for a Ford Fiesta of this vintage. The mileage progression is consistent and linear, showing no evidence of long-term storage or sudden spikes in usage. Between January 2023 and February 2026, the vehicle covered roughly 26,400 miles, confirming it remains in regular use rather than sitting idle for extended periods. This usage pattern is generally favourable, as it avoids the common degradation associated with long-term inactivity, such as seized calipers or perished rubber components. Despite the clean MOT history, a physical inspection remains necessary to verify the condition of components not always visible during a standard test. Focus your assessment on the underside for signs of corrosion, particularly around the sills and floor pans, as these are common weak points for this model. Inspect the condition of the suspension bushes and the integrity of the exhaust system, as these parts often show signs of age even if they pass the basic MOT criteria. Ensure the engine bay shows no signs of fluid leaks or neglected maintenance, as the low mileage may mask the need for age-related servicing such as timing belt replacement, which should be prioritised regardless of the odometer reading.
