2006 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · FL06 GSZ

The maintenance trend for this 2006 Ford Fiesta remains stable. The most recent MOT test on 13 January 2026 passed at 95,128 miles with zero defects recorded. The two previous failures on the same day in 2026 and on 17 January 2025 also curiously noted no defects, indicating administrative aborts or minor pre-test rectifications rather than persistent mechanical faults. The vehicle currently presents a clean bill of health with no recurring issues flagged by the tester. Mileage accumulation is remarkably low for a vehicle of this age. Between the December 2023 pass at 91,812 miles and the January 2025 test at 93,900 miles, the Fiesta covered just 2,088 miles over thirteen months. The subsequent twelve months until January 2026 added a mere 1,228 miles, averaging roughly 1,500 miles annually. This confirms exceptionally light usage or extended periods of inactivity rather than the typical wear associated with high-mileage driving. A buyer must inspect the vehicle for the typical ailments of a low-mileage, two-decade-old car. Prolonged standing frequently causes perished suspension bushes, seized brake calipers, and deteriorated tyre sidewalls, issues that might not trigger a failure if the car is driven sparingly to the test centre. Examine the underside closely for structural corrosion, as light use prevents road salt from being washed away, accelerating rust on the chassis and suspension mounts. Check the condition of the rubber hoses and belts, which degrade with age rather than mileage.
