2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · BW14 FDC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pass record over the last four years. The most recent MOT test on 16 July 2025 at 91,465 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, despite an initial failure on the same day. This immediate clearance suggests a minor issue was rectified quickly prior to the retest, indicating a proactive approach to maintaining compliance. Since that pass, the vehicle has operated for nearly a year without further recorded faults, which is within normal parameters for a car of this age. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a 12-year-old Fiesta, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per annum. Between August 2022 and July 2025, the car covered 13,734 miles, maintaining a steady rate of use of roughly 4,500 miles per year. This steady accumulation suggests regular vehicle use rather than long periods of stagnation, which often leads to seized brakes or perished fluid components. There are no sudden spikes in mileage that would indicate heavy commercial use, meaning the drivetrain and suspension components have likely been subjected to a predictable load. Given the lack of recurring mechanical advisories in the history, a physical inspection should focus on standard wear items that the MOT does not fully test. You should check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as these are common Fiesta points of failure as they approach the 90,000-mile mark. Examine the brake discs for uneven thinning or deep scoring, and check the tyre tread depth for consistent wear. While the record is clean of structural corrosion, a close look at the sills and wheel arches remains necessary to ensure the structural integrity of the chassis remains sound despite the age.
