FORD FIESTA2014 · 1.6L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass in September 2025 at 35,208 miles. This clean test returned no defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety and emissions standards. The result follows a period of clean passes in 2022 and 2024, suggesting that the mechanical condition has maintained a consistent standard over the last several years. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old Fiesta, averaging approximately 2,934 miles per year. Between September 2022 at 15,480 miles and September 2025 at 35,208 miles, the vehicle covered 19,728 miles, showing consistent short-distance usage. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it can lead to the degradation of rubber components. The single failure in September 2023 at 19,664 miles indicates a specific issue that was rectified immediately, given the subsequent pass later that same month. A physical inspection should focus on components affected by age and low-mileage operation. The buyer must check for perished rubber parts, specifically suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, which often crack when a vehicle sits for long periods. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or seized calipers, as infrequent use can prevent brakes from clearing properly. Although the MOT history shows no structural failures, a check of the underbody for surface rust remains necessary to ensure the low mileage has not masked environmental damage to the chassis.
