2015 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · DP64 OPE

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a trend of recurring consumable wear and deferred minor repairs. The most recent test in March 2026 at 106,891 miles passed despite an advisory for play in the nearside front track rod end and a minor cut on the offside front inner tyre. This represents a slight regression from the clean record seen in July 2025, suggesting that steering components and rubberwork are beginning to require attention as the vehicle ages. The mileage pattern is consistent with an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,700 miles per year. Between July 2023 and July 2024, the car covered 7,956 miles, with a further 5,170 miles recorded between the July 2024 and March 2026 tests. This steady accumulation suggests regular road use rather than long periods of standing, which often leads to seized brakes or perished seals. However, the total mileage now exceeding six figures places more significant stress on the suspension bushings and drivetrain components. A buyer must physically inspect the front suspension geometry, as the nearside front track rod end has already been flagged for play. The recurring history of tyres worn to the legal limit or showing uneven edges across 2023 and 2024 indicates potential alignment issues or a lack of proactive tyre management by previous owners. Additionally, the failure of the tyre pressure monitoring system noted in the failed July 2023 test should be verified to ensure it has been properly rectified rather than merely ignored.
