2018 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · CL65 AYT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward neglect regarding consumable components. While the most recent test conducted in August 2025 at 68,364 miles resulted in a pass, it followed a failure just one day prior. This failure highlighted multiple critical safety issues involving tyres and braking hardware, indicating that while the car is legal for the road, maintenance appears to be performed reactively to meet inspection requirements rather than on a proactive preventative schedule. The' pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,500 miles per year. There is a clear progression of roughly 15,000 miles between August 2022 and August 2023, followed by approximately 7,400 miles between June 2023 and August 2024. This steady usage suggests regular operation, though the gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests shows a period of lower activity which can sometimes contribute to the accelerated wear of rubber components in later years. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the front braking system, as the 2025 record specifically noted both thin pads and pitted or scored discs. Given that these were flagged immediately before a pass, it is essential to verify if parts were actually replaced or merely adjusted. Furthermore, the recurring mention of uneven tyre wear on the edges in both 2024 and 2025 suggests potential issues with wheel alignment or worn suspension bushes, which should be checked by a technician to avoid premature tyre replacement in the future.
