2016 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · A8 ALM

The 2016 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 November 2025 at 40,478 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass on 5 December 2024 at 38,829 miles confirms no outstanding advisories across the last two years. The mileage pattern shows unusual behaviour for a ten-year-old car. Recorded distance dropped from 58,859 miles at the 7 November 2023 test to 34,343 miles by 3 November 2022, then rose to 38,829 miles by December 2024 and 40,478 miles by November 2025. This implies either erroneous odometer entries or long periods of storage followed by light use, averaging roughly 4,048 miles per year overall. The MOT history is sparse and clean, with no advisories or mechanical faults logged on any pass. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the low and irregular mileage, as components degrade through age and standing rather than wear alone. The December 2024 failure with no defects recorded points to an administrative or presentational issue at the test centre rather than a mechanical fault, but confirm the V5C and test certificate to rule out clocking. No recurring corrosion, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity concerns appear in the official record. The previous owner maintained basic test compliance, though the odd mileage sequence warrants verification of genuine vehicle use before purchase.
