2005 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · YE05 ABN

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a passed MOT test on 14 October 2025, where no defects were recorded. The maintenance trend shows a pattern of immediate rectification, as the car failed the initial tests in both 2024 and 2025 only to pass the subsequent re-test on the same day. This suggests that mechanical faults are being identified and addressed promptly upon discovery, maintaining a stable but reactive regulatory compliance record over the last three years. At 63,757 miles, this 2005 Ford Fiesta has covered a low annual average of approximately 3,036 miles per year. The record shows consistent annual testing between 2023 and 2025, indicating the vehicle is in regular use rather than sitting for long periods. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber components, suspension bushes, and brake lines, which can perish due to time rather than mechanical friction. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the structural integrity and suspension components, as these are common areas of concern for vehicles of this age. Although the most recent test showed no advisories, the previous failures indicate a need to check for corrosion on the sills, mounting points, and exhaust system. Attention should also be paid to signs of fluid leaks and the condition of the brake discs to ensure the low mileage has not led to seized calipers or surface pitting on the system. Buying score: 68 Risk level: Low.
