2008 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · BN08 EDP

The 2008 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 January 2026 at 103,290 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT passes from January 2022 through to the present date. Annual mileage remains exceptionally low for an eighteen-year-old vehicle. Records show 99,459 miles at the 6 January 2022 test, rising only to 103,290 by 5 January 2026. That equates to roughly 938 miles added per year, or about 5,738 miles per annum across its life. No gaps or sudden accumulation appear in the data; the clean pass sheet each January suggests the car has seen light, consistent use with no prolonged downtime flagged through failures. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection of structural corrosion points and suspension bushes despite the absent advisories. Long idle periods between short trips accelerate underbody rust and allow rubber components to perish without visible wear on a rolling road. The tester recorded no brake disc lip, binding calipers, or exhaust emissions faults, yet aged coil springs and perished hoses remain latent risks on a car of this vintage. Given the sparse but clean history, previous owners clearly kept basic statutory testing current though low mileage hints at limited mechanical cycling. Verify the odometer against service stamps and check for standing-water damage before purchase.
