2011 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · CT60 FCD

This 2011 Ford Fiesta has maintained a consistent MOT pass history with no defects recorded across the last five annual tests, culminating in a clean pass on 29 October 2025 at just 28,679 miles. The absence of advisories or failings suggests the vehicle has not encountered systemic issues with critical components such as suspension, brakes, or emissions during these inspections. However, the most recent test occurred just under nine months ago, which—while acceptable—falls outside the ideal window for a pre-purchase inspection, given the vehicle’s age and the potential for wear to develop between tests. The recorded mileage of 28,679 miles over nearly 15 years equates to an average of approximately 1,912 miles per annum, a figure significantly lower than the UK average for vehicles of this age. This suggests either minimal usage or prolonged periods of inactivity, which could impact fluid levels, tyre condition, and minor wear items like suspension bushes or brake pads. Notably, there are no gaps in MOT testing, and the mileage progression remains steady without sudden spikes or drops, indicating no obvious periods of heavy use or neglect. The low mileage does not inherently signal structural issues, but it may mean some components—such as brake pads or timing belt (if applicable)—have not been serviced according to the manufacturer’s recommended intervals. Given the lack of recorded defects, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of high-wear items that fall outside MOT scope, such as the timing belt and water pump (if the vehicle has not undergone a full service), as these are not routinely checked during MOTs. The suspension should be assessed for worn or cracked bushes, particularly at the rear, where binding or uneven wear can develop without immediate MOT failure. Brake discs and calipers should be examined for uneven thickness or corrosion, as the Fiesta’s low mileage might mask gradual deterioration. Finally, a close inspection of the underbody and wheel arches is essential to check for corrosion, which can compromise structural integrity over time, even in a vehicle with minimal mileage. The absence of advisories in past MOTs does not preclude these areas from requiring attention.
