2020 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · AJ69 CCF

The 2020 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 15 January 2026 at 34,253 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the preceding annual tests show the same clean outcome. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the five-year DVSA history, so the vehicle shows no worsening or recurring defect pattern. Recorded mileage stays low for a six-year-old car. The tester logged 18,998 miles on 20 January 2023, 25,564 on 18 January 2024, 30,420 on 23 January 2025, and 34,253 on 15 January 2026. That averages roughly 5,700 miles per year with even yearly increments and no sudden accumulation. The clean record and gentle use suggest the previous keeper carried out basic scheduled care, though the 23 January 2025 entry shows both a fail and a pass on the same day at identical mileage with no defects cited, which points to an administrative retest rather than a repaired fault. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the spotless MOT trail. Low mileage and possible long standing periods can allow suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers to stiffen or seize without triggering a tester defect. Check the underbody and sills for corrosion, and confirm tyre sidewalls and brake discs are free from age-related cracking or pitting. Given the absence of recorded advisories, focus the viewing on consumables and hidden wear. Verify the exhaust emissions under cold start, test the handbrake travel, and inspect wiper blades and tyre tread for perishing. The history implies a lightly used, well-kept car, but paper cleanliness does not replace a hands-on check of structural integrity and running gear.
