FORD FIESTA2016 · 1.2L Petrol

The 2016 Ford Fiesta presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its most recent MOT on 2026-01-21 at 127,618 miles, which recorded no defects. The prior test on 2025-01-14 at 118,705 miles also passed with no issues, though a failed test on 2025-01-13 at 118,704 miles—immediately before the passing result—suggests a potential administrative anomaly or rapid resolution. Subsequent tests in 2024 at 103,077 miles showed consistent compliance. The absence of recorded defects in the last three tests indicates no immediate mechanical risks, though the high mileage warrants scrutiny of wear-prone components. The vehicle’s mileage of 127,618 miles over 10 years equates to an average of 12,762 miles annually, exceeding typical usage for its age. A significant jump from 103,077 miles in 2024 to 118,705 miles in 2025—over 15,628 miles in 12 months—suggests accelerated usage, which may have increased wear on brakes, suspension, and drivetrain elements. The sparse MOT record prior to 2024 offers limited insight into earlier maintenance patterns, but the recent tests show no recurring issues. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, which can degrade under high mileage, and check brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or corrosion. The exhaust system’s integrity should also be verified, as emissions compliance can falter with age. While no structural rust or major defects appear in the records, the vehicle’s high mileage and rapid accumulation since 2024 justify a thorough undercarriage inspection to confirm there are no hidden corrosion risks or unrecorded mechanical faults.
