2014 Ford Fiesta 1.5L Diesel · CU64 MXB

The 2014 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 2 March 2026 at 98,118 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the three preceding passes show no advisories or faults raised by testers. The vehicle's history indicates consistent statutory compliance with no worsening mechanical condition across the examined period. Recorded mileage sits at 98,118 against a 12-year lifespan, averaging roughly 8,176 miles per year which is typical for the age. The tests show steady accumulation: 82,787 miles on 23 August 2023, 90,345 on 16 August 2024, 93,817 on 3 March 2025, and 98,118 on 2 March 2026. A one-day gap between the 15 August 2024 failure at 90,326 miles and the 16 August 2024 pass at 90,345 miles suggests a same-week rectification, though the failure listed no defects, pointing to an administrative or minor non-mechanical rejection rather than consumable wear. The clean MOT record gives no flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions issues across five tests. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underbody for hidden rust, and verify the front suspension coil springs and rear brake calipers operate free of binding. The absence of advisories means previous owners kept the car to test standard, but undocumented interim wear on tyres and wiper blades remains outside MOT scope. Given the sparse but clean history, physical checks should target drivetrain mounts and steering rack play not captured by DVSA tests. The low annual mileage implies lighter use, yet standing periods can permit seized linkages or flat-spotted tyres. Confirm service intervals match the recorded 4,500-mile yearly gain before purchase.
