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 demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with the most recent 2026-03-23 MOT at 96,978 miles recording a pass and no defects. The prior 2025-11-28 test at 96,050 miles also passed, confirming consistent compliance. A 2024-11-22 pass at 87,147 miles preceded a 2024-11-21 failure at 87,123 miles, though no defects were logged. This suggests the vehicle has maintained acceptable standards, with no recurring mechanical issues flagged in the latest records. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging ~10,775 miles annually. A notable gap between 2024-11-22 (87,147 miles) and 2025-11-28 (96,050 miles) shows 8,903 miles accrued over 12 months, slightly below average, potentially indicating periods of reduced activity. Subsequent 2026-03-23 testing at 96,978 miles confirms minimal incremental wear, with no urgent concerns raised. The MOT history lacks significant gaps, reflecting regular maintenance checks. A buyer should physically inspect suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, given the 2024-11-21 failure’s unrecorded nature. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, warrant scrutiny to confirm no hidden binding or wear, as these are common issues in older Fords. Structural integrity should also be verified, though no corrosion or rust was noted in the records. The absence of advisories in recent tests implies no immediate risks, but proactive checks on high-mileage wear items remain prudent.
