2006 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · AF56 SSV

The 2006 Ford Fiesta shows a stable maintenance trend with a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 3 September 2022 at 153,926 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. This follows an earlier pass on 11 September 2021 at 147,672 miles, also with no advisories. The vehicle entered its final recorded test nearly four years ago and has shown no escalating faults across the two available entries. Annual mileage averages 7,696 against its 20-year life, a typical figure for this age of supermini. The records cover only 2021 and 2022, a narrow window. Between those dates the car covered 6,254 miles in twelve months, a modest accumulation that implies gentle use. No gap exceeds the standard twelve-month cycle and no rapid climb appears. The sparse history denies us visibility of consumable replacement or corrosion progression before 2021. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as the Fiesta of this era suffers chassis leg rust where road salt sits. The tester logged no suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc wear in either test, yet components at 153,926 miles will be original or aged. Check for binding calipers and exhausted dampers that a pass does not exempt from future failure. Given the clean record, previous owners appear to have met statutory test requirements without neglect. The absence of tyre or wiper advisories suggests basic upkeep was not skipped. Verify the four-year dormancy since 2022 has not bred perished hoses or flat-spotted tyres before any purchase.
