2009 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · T900 ADM

The 2009 Ford Fiesta has a current roadworthiness status of passed, as per its most recent MOT test on 2025-05-09 at 140,373 miles, with no defects recorded. However, the maintenance trend is concerning, as several faults have been recurring over the years, particularly with the suspension and brake components. The excessive wear on the offside front suspension arm ball joint, which was noted in 2019, 2023, and 2024, suggests a potential issue with the vehicle's structural integrity. The recorded mileage of 140,373 miles, accumulated over approximately 17 years, is roughly typical for its age, with an average annual mileage of around 8,257 miles. However, there are some notable gaps in the mileage pattern, such as the period between 2017 and 2022, where the mileage increased by 41,986 miles in just 5 years. This rapid accumulation of mileage may indicate a period of more intense use or neglect. Conversely, the mileage gap between 2023 and 2025 is relatively small, suggesting a possible period of lighter use. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's suspension and brake components in person, paying close attention to the offside front suspension arm ball joint, which has been flagged for excessive wear on multiple occasions. The vehicle's brake pads and discs have also been a recurring issue, with several instances of excessive wear and thinness noted in the history. Furthermore, the presence of corroded and fractured coil springs, as well as a damaged rear exhaust back box, suggests a potential for structural rust and wear. The buyer should also inspect the vehicle's tyres, as the history notes instances of uneven tyre wear and ply exposure, which may indicate a need for replacement.
