2019 Ford Fiesta ST-2 Turbo 1.5L Other · CSZ 9272

The 2019 Ford Fiesta ST-2 Turbo demonstrates a consistently clean MOT history, having passed all three most recent tests without any recorded defects or advisories. The latest inspection on 30 January 2025—just six months ago—confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy under current DVSA standards, with no evidence of recurring mechanical failures. This suggests the car has been maintained at a basic level, though the absence of advisories does not preclude hidden wear or deferred servicing beyond MOT scope. The recorded mileage of 38,911 miles over seven years indicates unusually light use, averaging just 5,559 miles annually. This pattern is atypical for a turbocharged model, which typically accumulates higher mileage given its performance-oriented nature. The gaps between tests—approximately 3,529 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests—are well within the 12-month MOT cycle, but the low mileage raises questions about whether the vehicle has been stored for extended periods. Such conditions can accelerate degradation of fluids, seals, and suspension components if not properly preserved. Given the clean MOT record, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of the turbocharger system, given the vehicle’s performance specification. The lack of advisories does not rule out oil contamination or carbon buildup, which are common in turbocharged engines with low mileage. The suspension—particularly the rear bushes and coil springs—should be checked for stiffness or uneven wear, as these components degrade predictably over time regardless of mileage. Brake discs and pads, while not flagged in the MOT, warrant scrutiny for uneven wear or glazing, especially if the vehicle has been infrequently driven. Finally, a visual inspection for corrosion at wheel arches, sills, and underbody is essential, as standing vehicles are prone to rust development even at low mileages.
