AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This Ford Fiesta presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent record of passing its MOT tests. The most recent test on 29 January 2026 at 69,947 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a rapid rectification of a minor issue. The vehicle has covered 69,947 miles over ten years, averaging roughly 6,995 miles per year. This is a typical usage pattern for this model. The mileage accumulation has remained steady over the last four years, rising from 55,470 miles in January 2023 to 69,947 miles in January 2026. There are no erratic gaps or sudden spikes in mileage that would suggest periods of neglect or excessive commercial use. The MOT history is exceptionally clean, with no advisories or failures recorded across the last four annual tests. The absence of flagged issues regarding suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions indicates a high standard of preventative maintenance. The previous owners appear to have addressed wear and tear before it reached a critical failure point. A physical inspection should still focus on common age-related wear that MOT testers sometimes overlook if it does not meet a failure threshold. Check the condition of the tyre treads and the depth of the brake pads. Inspect the underside for surface corrosion, particularly around the sills and suspension mounting points, as these are typical weak spots for Fiestas of this era despite a clean paperwork trail.
