2011 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · AV11 OGF

This 2011 Ford Fiesta shows a consistently clean MOT history with no recorded defects across five tests, including the most recent pass on 26 June 2025 at 76,499 miles. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the vehicle has undergone regular servicing and maintenance, though the record does not provide service intervals or mechanical details beyond MOT compliance. The most recent test was conducted just over a year ago, which is within the standard 12-month MOT validity period, though it falls slightly short of the ideal 6-month interval recommended for vehicles approaching 10 years old. The lack of recurring issues implies no obvious pattern of neglect or repeated mechanical failures, but the record remains silent on critical components like suspension bushes, coil springs, or drivetrain wear. The recorded mileage of 76,499 miles over 15 years equates to an average of approximately 5,100 miles per year, which is unusually low for a vehicle of this age. The gap between tests in 2022—where two MOTs were conducted on the same date (one pass, one fail, though both at identical mileage) before resuming annual testing—suggests either a temporary oversight or a period of reduced usage. The subsequent consistent 12-month intervals from 2023 onwards indicate stable ownership with no rapid mileage accumulation, which could imply the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary. This pattern may correlate with lighter use or storage, potentially mitigating some wear on high-mileage components like brakes or suspension. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of suspension components, particularly the rear bushes and coil springs, as these are common failure points in vehicles of this age and mileage. The brakes—though never flagged in MOTs—should be examined for uneven wear, binding calipers, or corrosion on the rear discs, as high-mileage Fiestas often develop issues here. Structural integrity, especially around the wheel arches and sills, warrants close scrutiny for corrosion, as rust can compromise the chassis over time. The absence of advisories does not preclude wear on consumables like wiper blades, brake pads, or tyres, which should be checked for depth and condition. The engine bay should also be inspected for fluid leaks, as these are often silent until they escalate. The record’s silence on servicing details means no assumptions can be made about oil changes, timing belt condition, or other critical maintenance.
