Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2017 Ford Fiesta presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 1 October 2025 at 48,142 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 30 September 2024 at 40,100 miles confirms no advisories or mechanical faults have accumulated across the recorded history. The mileage pattern reflects low annual use for the vehicle's age. From the 4 October 2023 test at 35,483 miles to the 30 September 2024 test at 40,100 miles, the car covered just 4,617 miles in roughly eleven months. By the 1 October 2025 test it had added only 8,042 miles across the full year, averaging near 5,349 miles annually since registration. The DVSA record shows no gaps exceeding thirteen months between tests, and the sparse clean history offers little evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs. The repeated fail-and-pass pairs on 4 October 2023 and 30 September 2024, both with no defects recorded at identical mileages, indicate administrative re-tests rather than mechanical faults. No advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions appear at any stage, so the structural and mechanical baseline looks sound for a nine-year-old hatchback. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of brake calipers, suspension arms, and underbody for hidden corrosion given the low mileage suggests possible prolonged standing. Verify the tyre sidewalls and brake hose condition, as these degrade with age irrespective of the clean MOT trail.
