2009 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · BE59 MCC

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status, evidenced by the successful pass on 14 February 2026 at 96,886 miles where no defects were recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car transitioned from a period of failures in early 2024 and 2025 to a clean result. This shift suggests that the previous owner was proactive in rectifying faults immediately upon discovery, ensuring the vehicle remains compliant between annual inspections. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 96,886 miles represents a low average of approximately 5,700 miles per year. The usage pattern is consistent over recent years, with roughly 6,000 miles driven between the February 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 6,335 miles leading to the most recent inspection. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, the age of the vehicle increases the likelihood of material degradation in rubber components and fluids due to time rather than distance of use. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas that caused the failures in February 2024 and February 2025, although the records do not specify the exact mechanical faults for those instances. Given the age of this Fiesta, close attention is required regarding corrosion on the sills, wheel arches, and subframes, which are common areas for this model. Additionally, check for perished suspension bushes and seized brake calipers, as long-periods of low-mileage use often lead to brake oxidation and cracked rubber when the vehicle sits for extended durations.
