2019 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · DY19 WDP

The 2019 Ford Fiesta presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 12 August 2025 at 44,511 miles with zero defects recorded. That result is the strongest in the vehicle's history. The preceding test on 6 September 2024 at 37,849 miles also passed without advisories, indicating the last two MOT cycles have been entirely trouble-free. Earlier entries show minor, promptly addressed faults rather than systemic neglect. The mileage accumulation is consistent and unremarkable for a seven-year-old supermini. Between the March 2023 test at 28,761 miles and the September 2024 test at 37,849 miles, the car covered 9,088 miles in roughly eighteen months, then added 6,662 miles in the eleven months leading to August 2025. That equates to approximately 6,359 miles per year overall, squarely within the typical range for this age. No suspicious gaps or sudden spikes appear in the record. The 2023 test cycle is the only area warranting closer attention. On 20 March 2023 at 28,761 miles, the car initially failed on two counts: an offside front tyre worn to the legal limit and a nearside headlamp aim that was both too high and too far left. The same tester passed the car later that same day after rectification, confirming the faults were corrected promptly rather than deferred. A worn tyre on one side only can indicate uneven tracking or a suspension geometry issue, so a buyer should inspect the front wheel alignment, suspension bushes, and track rod ends for asymmetric wear. The headlamp aim fault, while likely a simple adjustment, warrants checking that the headlamp levelling system functions correctly and that the lens mounting is undamaged. The March 2024 advisory for front brake pads wearing thin at 35,639 miles is a routine consumable item and not a concern in itself, particularly given the clean 2025 result. A buyer should still verify the condition of the front brake discs and pads in person, along with the rear brake setup, to confirm the car has been serviced consistently between the last two tests. Overall, the record reflects a vehicle that has been maintained to a reasonable standard with no recurring or escalating defects.
