2009 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · FD58 ADZ

The 2024‑11‑25 MOT passed the 2009 Ford Fiesta at 109,108 miles, confirming current roadworthiness, yet the record reveals a continuing trend of rear suspension and brake‑system corrosion that has not been fully remedied. Earlier failures in 2023 and 2022 documented rear coil spring corrosion, off‑side rear brake pipe degradation and near‑side front suspension arm wear, while the 2024 test only flagged spring mounting corrosion and thin front brake pads, indicating the vehicle remains passable but with pending maintenance. Mileage has risen steadily from 45,157 miles in 2014 to 109,108 miles in 2024, a gain of roughly 6,500 miles per year, which aligns with normal usage for a 17‑year‑old vehicle and shows no evidence of long idle periods or abrupt mileage spikes. A buyer should therefore inspect the rear coil springs and their mounting points for excessive corrosion or cracked bushes, examine the off‑side rear brake pipe and near‑side front brake pads for wear or binding, verify tyre condition for structural tears or cuts, check wheel bearings and rim distortion for play, and assess the chassis for rust that could compromise structural integrity.
