2015 Ford Fiesta 1.5L Diesel · CV65 ROU

A clean and consistent MOT record defines this 2015 Ford Fiesta, with no advisories or failure defects logged across the most recent test on 2025-09-01 or any of the preceding four examinations. The single failed entry on 2024-09-13 is immediately followed by a pass on the same date, indicating that the vehicle was presented twice that day with a defect rectified between tests rather than a deeper mechanical concern. Across four consecutive pass events spanning 2022 through 2025, the tester has not flagged any component for attention, which is a notably tidy record for an eleven-year-old supermini and points to sound overall roadworthiness. Mileage accumulation of 71,838 miles over roughly eleven years works out at approximately 6,500 miles annually, placing this Fiesta squarely in typical usage territory for its age and class. There are no significant gaps in the testing history that would suggest extended periods off the road, and the steady year-on-year pattern indicates regular driving rather than long-term storage or unusually high motorway use. Mechanically, this rate of accumulation tends to keep consumables such as brake pads, discs, tyres and clutch components working through their normal service life without the accelerated wear seen on higher-mileage examples or the corrosion risks associated with prolonged standing. Routine servicing intervals and timely fluid changes remain important, but the usage profile itself is not a source of concern. For a prospective buyer, the absence of recorded advisories means the usual Fiesta weak points should still be checked carefully on inspection, even though they have not yet been formally flagged. Pay particular attention to the front suspension, especially the top mounts, drop links and lower wishbone bushes, as these are known to wear progressively with mileage and can produce clonking or knocking over uneven surfaces or speed humps. On test drive, listen for any knocking from the front end, particularly over potholes, and feel for vagueness in the steering or uneven tyre wear, which can indicate worn suspension geometry. Brake feel should be firm and progressive, and the car should pull up in a straight line without any judder through the pedal, which would suggest warped front discs. Given the clean record, there is no specific rust pattern or oil leak history to investigate, but a thorough walkaround is still warranted on a vehicle of this age. Examine the underside, subframe mounting points, wheel arches and suspension arms for any surface corrosion that has not yet reached the threshold for advisory, as Fiesta structural areas can deteriorate from this age onwards. Check for any signs of oil misting around the engine, coolant staining on the radiator or header tank, and ensure the exhaust is free from blowing or corrosion at the joints. A compression test or diagnostic scan would also be sensible to confirm the engine and gearbox are healthy given the cumulative mileage, even though the MOT history provides no reason to suspect otherwise.
