2007 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · CK07 ABV

The 2007 Ford Fiesta is currently roadworthy following its 2025-10-03 MOT at 112,047 miles, with no defects recorded. However, the maintenance trend shows inconsistency, as the same vehicle failed its MOT just one day prior at 112,046 miles, with no defects noted. This suggests either a procedural error or an unrecorded issue that resolved rapidly. The prior tests from 2024 and 2023 also passed without defects, indicating a stable baseline but raising questions about the reliability of the most recent failure. No structural, brake, or suspension issues were flagged in the history, but the lack of detailed defect reports limits definitive conclusions. The vehicle’s mileage of 112,047 miles over 19 years equates to approximately 5,897 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage could imply infrequent operation, which may lead to component degradation from inactivity, such as seized joints or corrosion. MOT tests are spaced irregularly, with gaps of 13 months between 2023-09-28 and 2024-09-26, and 13 months between 2024-09-26 and 2025-10-03. Such intervals may not adequately monitor wear on consumables like tyres or brake pads, which could deteriorate without regular use. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as low mileage does not preclude age-related fatigue. The absence of brake-related defects in the record is reassuring, but a physical check for corrosion on brake discs or binding calipers is advised. Structural integrity should also be assessed, as rust or panel damage may have gone unrecorded. The vehicle’s MOT history lacks detail on these components, necessitating a professional inspection to confirm its mechanical soundness beyond the test results.
