2018 Ford Fiesta Active 1 Turbo Auto 1.0L Petrol · AF18 AXA

The vehicle presents a fully clean MOT record with zero advisories or defects across all three recorded tests. The most recent examination on 15 June 2026 at 15,207 miles returned a pass with no faults whatsoever, confirming full roadworthiness at that point. The maintenance trend is stable and consistently positive, with no recurring defects, no emerging patterns of deterioration, and no items requiring re-examination between tests. This is a straightforward, unblemished record. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle. The car covered just 4,888 miles between its first registration period and May 2022, then added 4,465 miles over the following twelve months to June 2023, and a further 5,854 miles to June 2024. Annual averages sit around 1,901 miles, well below the typical UK figure of roughly 7,000 to 8,000 miles per year. The acceleration in recent annual mileage suggests a change in ownership pattern, possibly from a stationary or infrequently used vehicle to one driven more regularly. A gap of nearly two full years between the June 2024 test and today's date of 18 June 2026 is worth noting, as the vehicle has not been retested in that interval despite MOT being due annually. The absence of any flagged items across all three tests means there are no recurring mechanical or structural concerns to highlight. No suspension components, brake system elements, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion issues have been identified by any tester at any stage. This level of consistency over a span covering roughly 10,000 miles suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a competent standard and has not developed faults typical of age or use. Despite the clean record, a prospective buyer should still carry out a physical inspection focused on areas the MOT does not fully assess. Check the condition of tyre sidewalls and tread depth across all four corners, as uneven wear can indicate alignment or suspension geometry issues not visible in a static test. Inspect the underside for surface corrosion on subframes, sills, and suspension mounting points, particularly given the low annual mileage, which can allow moisture to sit undisturbed in cavities. Test the braking system under load for any pulling or pulsation, and verify that the turbocharger delivers consistent boost without hesitation or smoke. The clean MOT history provides strong reassurance, but a pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic remains the most reliable way to confirm the vehicle's current condition.
