2014 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · BU14 OKD

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable and improving maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 24 March 2026 at 50,090 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows three years of consecutive clean passes since 2023, indicating that the vehicle is currently maintained to a high standard without any recurring mechanical or structural failures appearing in the recent DVSA data. The mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old Ford Fiesta, averaging approximately 4,174 miles per annum. Between March 2023 and March 2026, the car covered 8,833 miles, showing a consistent low-usage pattern. The single failure recorded on 17 March 2023 at 41,151 miles was rectified quickly, as the vehicle passed a re-test just one week later. This brief lapse suggests a minor consumable-related issue that was addressed immediately rather than a deep-seated mechanical neglect. Despite the clean record, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by age associated with low-mileage vehicles. Cars that sit frequently often suffer from rubber degradation, seized brake calipers, and perished suspension bushes. A buyer should check the condition of the tyre sidewalls for cracking and verify the brake discs for surface corrosion from lack of frequent use. Given the low mileage, the structural components should be in good condition, but the underside warrants a check to ensure that rust has not developed during long periods of inactivity.
