2022 Ford Fiesta ST-Line Vignale T Mhev 1.0L Petrol · DX22 LFV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in February 2026 at 41,516 miles resulted in a failure due to a parking brake lever with excessive movement. While this was rectified immediately to secure a pass on the same day, it suggests that the owner only addresses mechanical faults when they threaten an MOT certificate rather than performing preventative maintenance between intervals. At 41,516 miles over four years, the Fiesta has averaged approximately the10,400 miles per year, which aligns closely with national UK averages for a modern hatchback. The mileage gap between the February 2025 test at 34,134 miles and the February 2026 test shows a consistent interval of 7,382 miles. This steady usage pattern suggests the vehicle is not subjected to extreme mileage, which explains the typical wear on consumable components noted in the earlier inspection. A buyer should scrutinise the front-end suspension and wheel system in person. The February 2025 record flagged a nearside front road wheel with a distorted inner bead, which often indicates a significant impact or curb strike that could compromise the wheel's structural integrity. Furthermore, the previous reports of thin front brake pads and uneven tyre wear on the outer edges suggest potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes. A physical inspection of the current tyres is necessary to ensure the previous wear pattern has not caused permanent damage to the new set of rubber.
