2014 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · FH63 GSZ

The 2014 Ford Fiesta presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass on 28 November 2025 at 67,707 miles. The most recent test recorded zero defects, indicating the vehicle currently meets all required roadworthiness standards. A failed test did appear on the record for 23 November 2023 at 59,448 miles, yet curiously, no defects were logged against that failure. The subsequent retest on the same day passed without issue, suggesting the initial failure stemmed from an administrative error or an immediate rectification rather than a persistent mechanical fault. The mileage accumulation aligns with light usage, averaging roughly 4,000 miles annually between 2022 and 2025. The vehicle covered 4,285 miles between the November 2022 test at 55,330 miles and the November 2023 test at 59,448 miles, followed by 3,974 miles over the next twelve months to November 2024 at 63,422 miles. The most recent year saw a slight uptick, with the car traveling 4,285 miles to reach 67,707 miles by late November 2025. This consistent, low-mileage pattern typically reduces wear on drivetrain components, though prolonged standing can introduce its own issues. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer must inspect the vehicle for conditions typical of a low-mileage car that may stand idle for extended periods. Brake discs and calipers frequently suffer from surface corrosion and binding when a vehicle covers minimal mileage, even if the brakes passed the roller test. Suspension bushes and coil springs should be checked for perishing and corrosion, as light use does not exempt rubber components from age-related deterioration. Tyres must be examined closely for sidewall cracking and date codes, since tread depth can remain legal while the rubber degrades from age. The exhaust system and underbody require a thorough inspection for structural rust, as short trips prevent the undercarriage from drying out, accelerating corrosion.
