2009 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · BN09 VBP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in November 2025 with 88,689 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable despite a minor failure on that same day due to inoperative rear stop lamps, which were clearly rectified immediately to achieve a pass. This suggests the owner is responsive to basic safety-related defects, as the record lacks major structural or mechanical failures across the most recent three years of testing. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 88,689 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 5,217 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with the gap between the December 2022 test at 66,666 miles and the November 2025 test representing an interval of roughly 22 thousand miles. While low mileage often reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it can lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals due to age and oxidation rather than mechanical friction. A physical inspection should focus on the front-end suspension geometry, as the November 2024 test at 83,112 miles identified play in the nearside front lower suspension arm ball joint. Given the age of the Ford Fiesta, the buyer must also check all ball joints, bushings, and shock absorbers for signs of cracking or perished rubber. The 2022 advisory regarding uneven tyre wear on both rear tyres indicates a history of alignment issues or worn shocks, which should be verified against the current tyre condition to ensure no immediate replacement is required.
