2015 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · CL60 HAY

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a trend of worsening mechanical wear and structural degradation. While the most recent test in March 2026 at 107,147 miles passed, the appearance of corrosion on the front sub-frame and play in the nearside front anti-roll bar linkage marks a shift from the relatively clean record seen in 2022. These issues suggest the vehicle is entering a phase where age-related component fatigue requires proactive attention. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical-useage vehicle, averaging approximately 9,700 miles per year over its eleven-year life. Data shows a steady accumulation from 82,416 miles in March 2022 to 107,147 miles in March 2026. This regularity suggests the car has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often causes brake seals to perish, but the consistent mileage over the 100,000-mile mark places significant stress on the drivetrain and suspension components. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the front sub-frame to ensure the corrosion noted in the 2026 test does not progress into structural weakness. The recurring issue with the exhaust flexi section, flagged in both 2023 and 2025, indicates a previous repair was either temporary or the component is failing again. Furthermore, the history of binding service brakes in 2023 and corroded offside front brake pipes in 2024 necessitates a thorough check of the braking system and the integrity of the hydraulic lines to prevent future failure.
