2011 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · CE61 AEO

The 2011 Ford Fiesta exhibits a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-06-11 confirming no defects at 110,876 miles. This follows a 2024-06-17 pass at 104,733 miles, though a prior 2024-06-13 failure at 104,729 miles recorded no defects. The absence of recurring issues in the last three tests suggests consistent maintenance, though the failed test may indicate procedural inconsistency. No structural, braking, or emission concerns were flagged in the latest assessment, aligning with the vehicle’s typical mileage of 7,392 miles annually. Mileage progression shows steady accumulation, with 99,220 miles recorded in 2023 and 110,876 miles in 2025, reflecting an average annual usage. Gaps between tests are minimal, with the 2023-08-12 pass followed by a 2024-06-13 failure and subsequent 2024-06-17 pass, indicating no significant lapses in inspection. The vehicle’s age and mileage align with industry norms, though the 15-year span suggests potential wear on components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and exhaust systems. No irregularities in corrosion or drivetrain performance are documented, but long-term reliability remains contingent on prior owner maintenance practices. A buyer should verify the condition of the rear suspension, particularly if the 2024-06-13 failure involved binding calipers or uneven brake disc wear, though no such issues were recorded. Inspect the exhaust system for leaks or rust, as age often affects these components. Check for unexplained corrosion on the chassis or body seams, which could indicate hidden structural fatigue. While the MOT history lacks critical failures, the vehicle’s longevity necessitates a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm that mechanical integrity has been preserved beyond recorded tests.
