2005 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · FH05 EYG

The 2005 Ford Fiesta holds a current pass recorded on 30 June 2022 at 135,635 miles, with no defects listed, so on paper the vehicle presented as roadworthy at that time. The maintenance trend shown across the supplied records is stable rather than worsening, though the data is sparse and now four years old relative to today's date of 8 July 2026. Two failed tests in June 2022 and June 2021 carry no recorded defects, which points to administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. The odometer shows 126,421 miles at the June 2021 test and 135,635 miles by June 2022, a gain of just 9,214 miles over twelve months. Against the vehicle's 21-year life and an average of roughly 6,459 miles per year, this is consistent with light use. The gap between the last test and now means the car has either covered unknown mileage or stood unused for an extended period, and no MOT evidence exists beyond mid-2022. A buyer should physically verify the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for age-related corrosion or perishing rubber, since the record offers no insight into these components after 2022. Standing time over four years can seize calipers and rot brake lines, even where the last test showed a clean sheet. Structural integrity around sills and subframes warrants close inspection for rust given the vehicle's age and unknown storage conditions. The repeated fail-with-no-defect entries on 24 June 2022 and 23 June 2021 suggest the previous owner attended to paperwork promptly but the history gives no evidence of consumable replacement or deeper mechanical care. Treat the 2022 pass as a snapshot only, and commission a fresh independent inspection before any purchase.
