2016 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · FJ66 RLO

The 2016 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 28 June 2024 at 74,591 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history. The vehicle cleared every annual test after a same-day retest, showing no escalating mechanical faults or recurring advisory pattern. Recorded mileage sits at 74,591 against a ten-year lifespan, averaging roughly 7,459 miles per year, which is typical for this age of supermini. The DVSA log shows steady annual accumulation: 61,813 miles in July 2022, 68,120 by July 2023, and 74,591 by June 2024. No abrupt jumps or dormant gaps appear. The data is sparse but clean, with every pass and fail carrying zero noted defects. The back-to-back fail and pass entries on 27 and 28 June 2024 at 74,569 and 74,591 miles, and again on 11 July 2023 at 68,117 and 68,120 miles, indicate the tester initially rejected the car on administrative or unrecorded grounds before immediate clearance. This implies the previous owner addressed whatever halted the test within hours, suggesting responsive if last-minute upkeep rather than neglected care. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, and underbody corrosion, since the MOT record logs no advisories that would expose wear on those components. Confirm the absence of structural rust and check exhaust emissions during a cold start. The clean sheet offers no red flags, but ten years of use warrants hands-on verification of consumables and chassis integrity.
