2006 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · DA56 EXX

The 2006 Ford Fiesta presents a currently roadworthy status, having passed the most recent MOT test on 24 January 2025 at 132,820 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with the DVSA history showing no advisories or mechanical faults across the available tests. A minor administrative anomaly appears in the record: the car failed on 22 January 2025 at 132,739 miles yet the tester logged no defects, then passed two days later at 132,820 miles, suggesting a documentation or process error rather than a genuine mechanical concern. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a twenty-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,641 miles per year against the 132,820 miles recorded. The gap between the 4 October 2022 test at 117,528 miles and the 24 January 2024 test at 120,837 miles shows only 3,309 miles covered in over fifteen months, indicating a period of light use or limited running. From January 2024 to January 2025 the car added 11,983 miles, a return to nearer-normal annual use with no corresponding fault entries. The clean MOT record gives no flagged recurring problems across suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion, so no specific defect trend requires monitoring from the data alone. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underside structural integrity and suspension components given the vehicle's age and the two failed-with-no-defect entries that obscure what the tester initially queried. Given the sparse but clean history, verify the January 2025 fail/pass pair with the selling garage to confirm no suppressed advisory existed. Otherwise, the Ford shows consistent test passes and no recorded wear items requiring immediate action from the official record.
