2009 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · CV09 RXY

The Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy following the February 2026 test, where the tester passed it at 105,312 miles with no defects logged. The maintenance trend reads as stable across the three years of records, with each annual examination clearing the car on the pass attempt. A quirk appears in the February 2026 and February 2025 entries: the vehicle failed and passed on the same day at near-identical mileages, suggesting administrative re-tests rather than mechanical faults, since no defects were recorded on either attempt. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical 6,195 miles per year for a 17-year-old car. The records show 91,558 miles in February 2024, 99,307 miles at the February 2025 failure, and 105,312 miles by February 2026. That equates to roughly 7,000 to 8,000 miles annually over the captured period, a modest rise above the lifetime average but no sign of rapid accumulation or prolonged standing. The DVSA data is sparse, with only three years of history supplied and no advisories or defects ever noted. Given the clean test history, no recurring suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or corrosion issues were flagged for this Fiesta. The absence of advisories across all entries implies previous owners kept basic consumables within limits, though MOT pass rates alone do not confirm proactive maintenance on items like timing belt or fluid changes. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody rust, as the MOT record never examined those beyond statutory scope. Verify the same-day fail-pass pattern in February 2025 and February 2026 reflects paperwork, not concealed rectification. Check tyre tread depth, wiper blades, and exhaust emissions in person to confirm the clean record matches the car's true condition at 105,312 miles.
