MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Ford Fiesta (CE55 BWU) between June 2008 and November 2025.

The record contains 18 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 04 November 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (24 issues), Tyres (18 issues), Suspension (14 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 49 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (5.3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Offside Rear Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn axel bush (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn axel bush (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
