2005 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · AJ55 WBX

The Ford Fiesta passed its most recent MOT on 2 November 2022 at 85,976 miles with no defects recorded, leaving it roadworthy on paper at that time. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available record, though the surrounding tests expose administrative inconsistency rather than mechanical decline. The odometer shows 85,976 miles against a 2005 build, averaging roughly 4,094 miles per year. Between the 4 November 2021 pass at 83,615 miles and the October 2022 tests, the car covered only 2,361 miles. The record is sparse and clean, with no advisories or faults listed on any test. On 24 October 2022 the tester failed the car at 85,973 miles, then failed it again on 1 November at 85,976 miles, before the pass one day later, all with no defects recorded. Such repeated failures without noted defects suggest clerical or presentation errors at the testing station rather than owner neglect. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection before purchase. The MOT data flags nothing on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, calipers, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across the lifespan. Low mileage and a three-year gap between the 2021 and 2022 tests imply the car may have stood idle for periods, raising the risk of perished rubber components, seized brake mechanisms, or hidden structural rust not captured by a pass with no advisories. Given the 2022 pass is over three and a half years old relative to today's date, the vehicle is now without a current valid test. The next owner must budget for a fresh MOT and a thorough mechanical check of consumables and structural integrity before road use.
