2018 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · EY68 URB

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean roadworthiness status at its most recent inspection. The July 2026 test at 21,499 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, mirroring the clean result from the July 2025 test at 19,669 miles. This indicates that the vehicle has moved past previous minor issues and is currently maintaining a consistent standard of upkeep. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally low for a 2018 model, averaging roughly 2,687 miles per year. The records show a steady, incremental increase in distance between tests, such as the 2,489-mile rise between July 2025 and July 2026. While low mileage generally suggests reduced wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, the pattern of infrequent use can sometimes lead to secondary issues like rubber perishing or fluid degradation. The July 2024 test at 17,180 miles flagged advisories for cracking and perishing on all four tyres. This specific fault suggests that the vehicle may have sat stationary for extended periods, causing the rubber to age prematurely despite the low mileage. Although these tyres were clearly replaced or addressed prior to the 2025 and 2026 tests, a buyer should inspect the sidewalls and tread of the current tyres for similar signs of age-related degradation. Beyond the tyres, the mechanical history is remarkably sparse. The only failure occurred in April 2021 due to a defective rear fog lamp lens, a minor electrical/lighting issue that was rectified. Given the low usage, a physical inspection should focus on checking the battery health and ensuring that the braking system, specifically the calipers and discs, has not suffered from surface corrosion due to lack of regular movement.
