2015 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · FD15 YHC

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test on 18 July 2025 at 23,113 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the mechanical and structural components currently meet all DVSA standards. This trend suggests a well-maintained vehicle that has not suffered recurring mechanical failures over the last five years. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old Ford, averaging approximately 2,100 miles per year. Between June 2024 and July 2025, the car covered only 5,449 miles, while the interval between 2022 and 2023 saw just 2,072 miles. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long periods of inactivity can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components that do not rely solely on mileage. A buyer should focus on the effects of low-use storage during a physical inspection. The July 2021 test at 10,523 miles noted surface cracks in the tyre grooves and uneven wear on the nearside front, which are typical signs of age-related dry rot and flat-spotting. Inspect the tyres for further sidewall cracking and check the brake discs for corrosion or pitting, which often occurs when a vehicle sits for extended periods. Additionally, verify the suspension bushes and seals to ensure they have not perished from age age despite the low recorded mileage.
