2011 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Diesel · CV61 EXZ

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on March 4, 2026, 84,387 miles with no recorded defects. This indicates a stable maintenance trend following a period of inconsistency. While the car suffered failures in both 2024 and 2025, the issues were rectified to achieve subsequent passes. The lack of advisories on the latest test certificate suggests that the previous owner has been proactive in addressing mechanical or safety concerns that previously hindered the testing standard. The mileage data appears highly irregular for a 15-year-old vehicle. While the average usage sits at approximately 5,600 miles per year, the record shows a massive spike of 55,672 miles covered between January 2024 (66,420 miles) and March 2025 (122,097 miles). This represents extreme high-intensity usage over a short fourteen-month window. However, the current recorded mileage of 84,387 miles in March 2026 indicates a drop of nearly 38,000 miles compared to the 2025 test. This discrepancy suggests either a data entry error in the national database or an odometer rollback, which requires immediate verification before purchase. A buyer must verify the physical odometer reading against the recorded history to resolve the mileage discrepancy. Given the age of the Fiesta and the periods of low usage, a physical inspection should target rubber components, such as suspension bushes and brake boots, which degrade over time regardless of distance. Specifically, check the structural integrity of the sills and rear subframe for corrosion, as these are common failure points on this generation. Also inspect the braking system for signs of binding calipers or disc pitting, as the high-mileage burst in 2024 would have stressed the braking components significantly.
