2015 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · EN15 WRP

The vehicle remains roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a persistent trend of deferred repairs and recurring structural issues. The most recent test in November 2025 at 59,230 miles identified a binding offside front service brake and continued corrosion on the front sub-frame. While the car has consistently passed, the recurrence of the defective exhaust mounting clamp across multiple years suggests that the previous owner only addressed faults when they reached a failure threshold rather than performing preventative maintenance. At 59,230 miles over eleven years, this Fiesta reflects a low annual average of approximately 5,385 miles per year. However, the data shows a significant usage gap between May 2022 (47,155 miles) and September 2023 (58,097 miles), where the vehicle covered over 11,000 miles in just sixteen months. This sporadic usage often leads to accelerated degradation of rubber components, which is evidenced by the perishing and cracking tyres noted in 2023 alongside the misting rear shock absorbers. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front sub-frame to determine if the noted corrosion has progressed beyond being seriously weakened, as this has been a consistent advisory since 2024. The braking system requires immediate attention, as the binding offside front caliper and the history of pitted discs and thin pads indicate a need for a full service overhaul. Furthermore, the misting on rear shock absorbers recorded since 2023 suggests they are nearing the end of their functional life and may require replacement soon to maintain handling stability.
