2009 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · FE59 UBA

The 2009 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 30 June 2025 at 85,247 miles, with no defects logged. The maintenance trend is stable and free of escalating faults. The record shows no advisories or mechanical concerns across the last three annual cycles, indicating the vehicle has been presented in a condition acceptable to DVLA testers without recurring wear items requiring monitoring. The odometer reads 85,247 miles against a 17-year lifespan, equating to roughly 5,015 miles per year. This is low for the age and points to light use or extended standing periods. Mileage moved from 76,534 on 7 July 2023 to 81,449 on 8 July 2024, then to 85,116 by 20 June 2025. The annual increments of about 4,900 and 3,700 miles confirm steady, undemanding private use rather than fleet or motorway abuse. Two failed tests on 5 July 2024 and 20 June 2025 preceded immediate passes with identical mileages and no defects recorded. This pattern suggests administrative or presentation issues at initial submission rather than latent mechanical faults. The owner corrected the matter within days each time, implying the car was functionally sound but perhaps lacked a required document or minor check on first attempt. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, brake discs, and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age. Low mileage can mask perished rubber and surface rust from inactivity. Verify the timing belt interval and confirm the absence of advisory corrosion on sills and subframes, as the MOT history offers no visibility of components not tested at the time.
