2016 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · BJ16 VMH

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent MOT test on 7 August 2025 at 76,832 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, despite an initial failure noted on the same day. This lack of specific defect data suggests an administrative error or a minor issue that was rectified immediately before the re-test. Since 2022, the car has maintained a clean record without advisories, indicating a consistent standard of mechanical upkeep. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. Between August 2022 and August 2025, the car covered 11,292 miles, representing a steady usage rate of roughly 3,700 miles annually. This low-frequency usage typically reduces the strain on drivetrain components and suspension bushings compared to high-mileage examples. The absence of significant gaps between tests suggests the vehicle has been used regularly rather than left to sit for long periods of inactivity. Because the MOT record shows no recurring advisories, a physical inspection should focus on the current state of components that age regardless of mileage. A buyer should check for perished rubber in suspension bushes and control arms, which can become brittle over time even on low-mileage cars. Brake discs should be examined for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use can sometimes lead to oxidation on the rotors affecting braking performance. Overall, the documented data suggests a well-maintained example with no immediate red flags regarding major mechanical failures or structural degradation.
