2016 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · YS66 AMX

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2023-08-05 at 25,844 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but the same date shows a failed test with no defects listed, suggesting a possible data inconsistency. Previous tests from 2022 and 2021 also passed with no issues, indicating a stable maintenance trend. However, the absence of MOT records since 2023 raises concerns about unverified compliance, as the car has not been assessed for over three years. No structural, braking, or emissions-related faults were flagged in the history, but the lack of recent testing limits confidence in its current roadworthiness. The recorded mileage of 25,844 miles over 10 years equates to approximately 2,584 miles annually, significantly lower than average for a 2016 model. This suggests either infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate component degradation through corrosion or fluid stagnation. A notable jump in mileage from 18,129 in 2021 to 25,844 by 2023—over 7,700 miles in two years—implies increased usage during that period, though no wear-related issues were recorded. The sparse MOT history, with no advisories or recurring faults, indicates a clean maintenance record but offers limited insight into potential hidden deterioration. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as low mileage can lead to stiffness or uneven wear. Brake components, including discs and calipers, should be checked for corrosion or binding, particularly if the vehicle has been stationary for extended periods. Structural integrity, especially around the chassis and body seams, warrants scrutiny to rule out rust or fatigue damage. While the MOT data shows no immediate risks, the absence of recent testing means a physical inspection is critical to confirm the car’s condition beyond recorded records.
