2005 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · AD05 ULZ

The vehicle presents a confused roadworthiness picture from its most recent recorded activity. On 27 August 2021 at 81,340 miles the Ford Fiesta both passed and failed an MOT on the same day with no defects recorded against either outcome. This contradictory pairing offers no evidence of a stable, worsening, or improving maintenance trend, and the absence of advisories leaves the buyer without a documented mechanical baseline from which to judge ongoing condition. The recorded mileage sits at 81,340 across roughly 21 years of life, equating to about 3,873 miles per year. That is low for a 2005 supermini and implies either light commuting use or extended periods off the road. The single dated entry from August 2021 means the history is sparse; no earlier or later tests appear, so we cannot chart accumulation or detect gaps beyond the fact the car has covered no logged miles since that date nearly five years ago. A buyer should physically verify why the same-day pass and fail occurred, as DVSA systems usually show a failure only where a defect exists. With no defects listed, the failure may stem from administrative error or an unlogged test condition. Given the low use and age, inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe mounting points for perishing from standing, and check brake discs and calipers for corrosion or binding after idle storage. Confirm the true odometer reading against the 81,340 figure and seek proof the car has been tested since 2021, as it may now be untaxed or SORN. Without a fresh test, structural integrity and exhaust emissions remain unverified by any official record.
