2008 FORD FIESTA1.2L PETROL

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT test on 24 March 2026 at 97,727 miles. While the record shows a failure on that same date, the lack of recorded defects suggests a minor issue was rectified immediately prior to the retest. The overall maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has passed its last three annual inspections without any advisory notes or recurring mechanical failures over the previous two years. The mileage profile is notably low for an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,400 miles per year. Between April 2024 at 88,525 miles and May 2025 at 92,317 miles, the car covered 3,792 miles, indicating a period of light usage. The more recent interval of 5,410 miles over the final year remains consistent. While low mileage often reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid breakdown. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the chassis and structural integrity for corrosion, as Ford vehicles of this era are prone to rust in the sills and rear wheel arches. Given the low mileage, pay close attention to the condition of suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, which may have perished from age rather than use. Although the MOT history does not flag specific mechanical faults, checking for binding brake calipers or corroded discs is necessary to ensure the vehicle has not seized during periods of inactivity.
