FORD FIESTA2014 · 1.0L Petrol

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate following a successful test on 27 March 2026 at 30,893 miles. The maintenance trend remains exceptionally stable, as the car has achieved consecutive clean passes since at least 2023 without a single recorded advisory. The brief failure on the most recent test date appears to be a clerical or administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical defect, given that the vehicle passed immediately on the same day with no faults noted. The recorded mileage of 30,893 over a twelve-year lifespan averages approximately 2,574 miles per annum, confirming a pattern of light, intermittent usage. Consistent annual testing between March 2023 and March 2026 demonstrates that the vehicle has remained in regular circulation despite the low total distance covered. This steady accumulation suggests the car has not been subjected to the accelerated wear associated with high-mileage fleet use, though the low annual figures indicate the vehicle may have spent significant periods stationary. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components prone to degradation during long periods of inactivity rather than high-mileage wear. While the MOT history is clean, check the condition of the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-mileage cars often suffer from seized calipers or neglected fluid changes. Inspect the rubber suspension bushes and engine mounts for signs of perishing or cracking due to age, and examine the tyres for sidewall cracking regardless of tread depth. The lack of structural advisories is promising, but a visual check of the underside for surface oxidation remains a prudent step for any vehicle of this age.
