Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 2025-09-16 at 78,903 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend is stable with no advisories or mechanical faults logged across the available history. The vehicle passed cleanly in September 2025 after two earlier same-day fail/pass pairs that also carried no recorded defects, indicating administrative or presentational issues at the testing station rather than progressive mechanical decline. Recorded mileage sits at 78,903 against a 2016 build, averaging roughly 7,890 miles per year and matching typical use for this age of supermini. The history shows 45,628 miles in September 2023, 60,428 in September 2024, and 78,903 by September 2025, equating to about 14,800 miles in the final year versus 15,000 the year before. No standing periods or sudden accumulation gaps appear; the odometer progression is linear and uneventful. The repeated fail entries on 2024-09-17 and 2025-09-11 at identical mileages to the subsequent passes suggest clerical rejection rather than worn tyres, binding calipers, or corrosion. With no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity across five years, the previous owner maintained the car to a basic pass standard. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of coil springs, subframe corrosion, and brake component wear given the ten-year age. The clean MOT ledger offers no evidence of underlying faults, but DVSA tests do not strip components. Verify service history and check for undocumented intermittent electrical or drivetrain issues before purchase.
