2005 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Diesel · CP05 OGH

The 2005 Ford Fiesta passed its most recent MOT on 3 September 2025 at 119,052 miles with no defects recorded, leaving it roadworthy on paper. The maintenance trend shows a clean bill of health at the latest test, though the surrounding history reveals a pattern of repeated administrative failures rather than mechanical decline. The vehicle sits in a stable condition with no advisories or recorded faults across the supplied entries. Recorded mileage stands at 119,052 against an age of roughly 21 years, equating to about 5,669 miles per year. The car covered only 1,917 miles between the August 2024 pass at 117,135 miles and the September 2025 pass. Low annual use suggests lighter wear on drivetrain and suspension components, but also raises the prospect of prolonged standing that can accelerate rubber perishing and corrosion. The MOT data itself is sparse and clean, with no advisories logged at any stage. The four failed tests in August 2024 and August 2025, at 117,125, 117,135, 119,029 and 119,042 miles, recorded no defects. This points to documentation or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and structural underbody areas, as the absence of advisories does not rule out latent corrosion or consumable wear hidden from the automated record. Given the low mileage and repeated no-defect failures, previous keepers likely used the car sparingly and addressed any test requirements promptly. Verify the V5C and service history to confirm the standing periods were not prolonged enough to cause unseen degradation in brake calipers or exhaust emissions systems.
