FORD FIESTA2016 · 1.2L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pass history over the last four years. The most recent test conducted in July 2025 at 30,143 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just one day prior at 30,138 miles. While the record shows no specific reason for that failure, the sequence suggests a minor item rectification, such as a bulb replacement or minor adjustment, which was resolved immediately before the re-test. The mileage pattern is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,000 miles per annum. Between July 2022 and July 2024, the car covered only 2,496 miles, showing very light usage. However, there was a significant increase in activity between July 2024 and July 2025, where the odometer clocked an additional 8,719 miles. This indicates the car was likely used for short urban trips or sat for extended periods of time. While this reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, low-mileage cars can sometimes suffer from the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid oxidation. A physical inspection should focus on the effects of low-frequency use. The buyer should check the brake discs for surface corrosion or seized calipers, as infrequently used brakes are prone to pitting and uneven wear. Suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls require examination for cracking or dry rot, which occurs due to age rather than mileage. Given that the MOT history is remarkably clean of structural corrosion or mechanical advisories, the check of the chassis remains necessary to ensure no hidden rust has developed during periods of inactivity.
