FORD FIESTA2008 · 2.0L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test conducted on 6 November 2024 at 89,126 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. This sustained clean record across the last five years suggests a proactive approach to maintenance and a lack of significant mechanical or structural failures typically seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 2008 Ford Fiesta, averaging approximately 4,951 miles per year. Between June 2020 and November 2024, the vehicle covered only 9,532 miles, representing very infrequent use. There is a slight gap in the testing interval between June 2021 and November 2022, but the mileage accumulation remains consistent with a low-use city car profile. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components and fluid seals due to long periods of inactivity. While the MOT record shows no recorded faults, a buyer must inspect for issues common to low-mileage older cars. Particular attention should be paid to the structural integrity of the sills and wheel arches, as corrosion can develop regardless of the distance driven. The buyer should also check for perished suspension bushes and signs of weeping from brake calipers, as these components age over time rather than through wear from mileage. Given the age of the vehicle, verifying the condition of the tyres and the brake fluid is essential to ensure they have not degraded during periods of limited use.
