2018 FORD FIESTA1.5L Petrol

The vehicle maintains a clean MOT record, with the most recent test on 16 August 2025 at 43,420 miles resulting in a pass with no recorded defects. This indicates a stable maintenance trend, as the car has cleared its annual inspections without any advisories or failures for the past four years. The single failure recorded on 15 August 2025 appears to be a clerical or administrative anomaly, given it occurred one day prior to the successful test at the same mileage with no specific defects logged. The recorded mileage of 43,420 miles over an eight-year lifespan averages approximately 5,428 miles per annum, which is notably lower than the typical UK usage profile. The history shows a consistent, low-intensity accumulation of miles between 2022 and 2024, with a significant jump of roughly 13,500 miles occurring between August 2024 and August 2025. This recent increase suggests the vehicle transitioned from a period of light or static use to more regular daily operation, which is generally beneficial for preventing the seizing of mechanical components like brake calipers or exhaust hangers. Potential buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of consumable items that may have aged due to time rather than high mileage. While the MOT history is clear, check the rubber suspension bushes and engine mounts for signs of perishing, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from degradation of these materials over eight years. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, which can occur if the car sat idle for extended periods. Given the recent uptick in usage, verify that the tyres show even wear patterns across the tread, as this confirms the suspension geometry remains correctly aligned despite the change in driving frequency.
