FORD FIESTA2010 · 1.4L Diesel

The most recent MOT on 3 June 2025 at 95,068 miles recorded a Pass, indicating the vehicle currently meets the statutory roadworthiness criteria. Earlier failures in May 2024 and June 2023 were cleared without recorded defects, suggesting that any issues identified were remedied promptly and that the overall maintenance trend appears stable. At 95,068 miles after sixteen years, the car averages roughly 5,900 miles per annum, well below the typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The mileage rose from 86,681 miles in June 2023 to 92,773 miles by May 2024, a modest increase of 6,092 miles in eleven months, then added another 2,295 miles by June 2025. No large gaps or sudden spikes are evident, and the record contains no unexplained mileage jumps, implying consistent, low‑intensity use. Although the MOT entries list no specific defects, the presence of two failures – one in May 2024 and another in June 2023 – warrants a visual and tactile check of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components. Examine the brake discs for wear or scoring, verify that calipers operate without binding, and confirm that tyre tread depth meets legal limits. A thorough inspection of the under‑body for corrosion, especially around wheel arches and chassis joints, will help rule out any latent structural issues that may not have been captured in the MOT. A prospective buyer should therefore focus on the condition of consumables such as tyres, brake pads, and wiper blades, while also confirming that the suspension and brake systems function smoothly and that the vehicle’s body shows no signs of rust or damage. If these areas prove sound, the car’s low mileage and recent pass suggest a reasonable level of mechanical reliability.
