2009 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · CE09 WDP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy and has maintained a stable mechanical profile despite its age. The most recent MOT test conducted in February 2024 at 138,267 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While the history shows a failure just five days prior to that pass, the immediate rectification suggests the previous owner was willing to invest in addressing identified issues promptly to bring the vehicle back into compliance. At 138,267 miles, the Fiesta has averaged approximately 8,133 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage patterns for a 2009 registration. The data shows consistent usage intervals, with 12,945 miles covered between February 2023 and February 2024, and another 3,329 miles recorded between April 2022 and February 2023. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which often leads to perished seals, seized brake calipers, or degraded fuel quality. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components most susceptible to age-related wear on this model. Although the MOT record is remarkably clean of persistent advisories, the recurring failures in 2022 and 2024 necessitate a close look at the suspension bushes, coil springs, and exhaust system. Given the vehicle's age and mileage, checking the structural integrity of the sills and wheel arches for hidden corrosion is essential, as these are often the primary points of failure for older Fiest before they appear on a test certificate.
