2016 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · AF13 ACF

The 2016 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy following its most recent pass on 25 February 2026 at 76,159 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The DVSA entries show clean tests with no defects logged at any stage. A notable administrative quirk appears on both 4 March 2024 and 25 February 2026, where a failure was recorded at the same mileage as a pass on the same date, yet no defects were listed; this points to clerical or process errors at the testing station rather than genuine mechanical faults. Mileage progression sits close to typical for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,600 miles per year. The record moves from 56,793 miles on 4 March 2024 to 67,730 miles by 24 February 2025, then to 76,159 miles by February 2026. That equates to about 10,900 miles covered in the first interval and 8,400 in the second. No abrupt accumulation or prolonged standing is evident, and the sparse but consistent entries suggest the previous owner kept the car in regular, moderate use without large gaps. Because no advisories or defects were ever flagged across suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion, the MOT data alone reveals no recurring wear trends requiring concern. The twin failure-with-no-defect entries remain the only irregularity and warrant a check of the DVSA portal to confirm they were system artefacts rather than suppressed faults. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection given the age. Examine underbody for corrosion, check suspension bushes and dampers for degradation, and measure brake disc and pad wear. Verify the tyres and wiper blades meet legal limits. The clean record implies reasonable upkeep, but the MOT test does not assess every consumable in depth.
