2016 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · CU16 NEO

The 2016 Ford Fiesta presents a stable roadworthiness profile, culminating in a pass at its most recent MOT on 12 February 2026 at 69,737 miles. The maintenance trend remains consistently positive, with no defects recorded across the entire documented history. An unusual administrative pattern emerges from the record, however, as the vehicle failed the test on 5 February 2026 at 69,735 miles and again on 6 February 2024 at 55,047 miles, yet neither failure lists any specific mechanical defects. This suggests the fails likely stem from procedural or administrative issues rather than underlying mechanical deterioration, and the subsequent clean passes confirm the car meets required standards promptly afterward. The mileage accumulation aligns perfectly with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. Between the February 2024 test at 55,047 miles and the January 2025 test at 62,023 miles, the Fiesta covered roughly 7,000 miles, a rate that held steady through to the February 2026 test at 69,737 miles. This consistent annual mileage of approximately 7,000 miles indicates regular, steady use rather than prolonged standing or excessively high stress, which bodes well for the condition of the drivetrain and consumables. With no recurring faults or specific mechanical defects flagged in the record, the focus for any in-person inspection shifts to standard age and mileage wear. A buyer should closely examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration, and check the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or corrosion. Assessing the structural integrity of the underbody and sills for corrosion remains prudent for a 2016 vehicle, alongside verifying the condition of the exhaust system and tyre tread depth.
