2011 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Diesel · CK61 ABN

This 2011 Ford Fiesta has maintained a clean MOT record since its most recent test on 2025-10-09, passing without any defects at 93,447 miles. The absence of advisories or failures in the past two tests—including the 2024 retest just five days after an initial failure—indicates no recurring mechanical issues were detected by the tester. However, the single failure in 2024 (at 88,263 miles) suggests a minor oversight was corrected promptly, though the exact cause remains unspecified in the record. Overall, the trend is stable, with no evidence of worsening conditions, though the brief 2024 failure warrants closer scrutiny of components that might have triggered a retest, such as brakes, suspension, or emissions. The recorded mileage of 93,447 miles over 15 years reflects an average of approximately 6,230 miles annually, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. There are no unusual gaps in testing—each annual test occurred within a few days of the previous year’s date, and the 2024 failure was resolved within a week. The consistency in mileage accumulation suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme conditions or prolonged neglect, though the lack of pre-MOT maintenance records means wear on high-wear items like tyres, brakes, and suspension remains unverified. The 2024 failure, despite being rectified, could imply a single instance of deferred maintenance rather than a systemic issue. A buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the suspension components, particularly the rear bushes and coil springs, given the 2024 failure’s proximity to typical suspension-related issues. The brakes, while not explicitly flagged, should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the failure involved brake-related advisories. Structural integrity is also worth assessing, as corrosion in wheel arches, sills, or the subframe can develop silently over 15 years. Tyre condition is another critical area—failing twice on tread depth would suggest basic upkeep was inconsistent, so depth, tread pattern wear, and underlying rim condition should be verified. Finally, the exhaust system and emissions should be examined for leaks or catalytic converter efficiency, as these are common failure points in older Fiestas.
