FORD FIESTA2007 · 1.4L Petrol

The 2007 Ford Fiesta last recorded a clean MOT pass on 18 October 2022 at 98,015 miles, but that certificate lapsed in October 2023 and no test appears before 16 July 2026. Maintenance trend across the five logged entries stays stable, with no defects or advisories cited at any stage. The tester issued a fail on the same date, 18 October 2022, and a fail on 20 October 2020 followed by a pass next day, both with no faults listed, pointing to administrative or presentation rejections rather than mechanical defect. Odometer readings reveal light use for a 19-year-old vehicle. The record shows 82,413 miles on 21 October 2020, a small rise to 87,391 by 18 October 2021, then a leap to 98,015 on 18 October 2022, equating to 10,624 miles in the final year versus under 5,000 previously. Average lifetime mileage sits near 5,160 miles per annum. Since the last test, the absence of further MOTs suggests the Fiesta has remained idle or off-road for close to four years, a period that can degrade rubber components and brake hydraulics despite low accumulated distance. A buyer must commission a hands-on inspection of structural integrity, suspension bushes and coil springs given the age and prolonged storage. DVSA logs flag no brake disc wear, exhaust emissions failures or binding calipers, yet the unexplained fails warrant checking lighting circuits, number-plate condition and wiper blades that may have caused rejection. Standing time risks seized handbrake mechanisms, corroded brake discs and perished tyres; these items require physical verification before road use. Previous keepers appear to have corrected trivial items swiftly, but the recent lapse indicates the current owner took the car out of service.
