2007 Ford Fiesta 2.0L Petrol · EY07 HTE

The vehicle presents a highly stable roadworthiness profile, maintaining a clean MOT record over the last five years. The most recent test conducted in April 2025 at 110,888 miles passed with zero defects or advisories. This streak of clean passes dating back to 2020 indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids the common pitfalls of recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage pattern is remarkably low for a 19-year-old Ford, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year. The data shows consistent, incremental usage, such as the 1,833 miles driven between the 2024 and 2025 tests. While there is a notable gap in records between May 2020 and May 2022, likely due to pandemic-related travel restrictions, the vehicle remained roadworthy without recorded failure during that interval. This low mileage suggests that the drivetrain and engine components have experienced significantly less mechanical wear compared to high-mileage counterparts. Despite the clean MOT history, a physical inspection must focus on components affected by age and periods of inactivity rather than just mileage. A buyer should check for perishation in rubber components, specifically suspension bushes and brake hoses, which can crack over two decades regardless of distance. Given the vehicle's age, inspecting the chassis for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches is essential, as the MOT only flags surface rust once it reaches a structural threshold. Additionally, ensuring the brake calipers have not seized due to long periods of standing is a prudent precaution for a low-use vehicle.
