2015 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · FM64 RKX

The 2015 Ford Fiesta presents a highly stable maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean MOT pass on 9 January 2026 at 52,076 miles. The tester recorded zero defects or advisories, indicating the vehicle currently meets all required safety and environmental standards without reservation. This unblemished record over the past five years demonstrates consistent upkeep and a lack of recurring mechanical faults, suggesting the car has been reliably maintained rather than neglected. The mileage accumulation aligns perfectly with its age, reflecting an average annual usage of approximately 4,734 miles. Between the January 2022 test at 32,784 miles and the January 2026 test at 52,076 miles, the odometer advanced by 19,292 miles over four years. This low-mileage profile suggests lighter daily use or short-trip commuting rather than long-distance motorway driving. The consistent, incremental rise in mileage between annual tests—ranging from 4,736 to 5,831 miles per year—rules out long periods of inactivity or sudden, excessive wear, pointing instead to steady, predictable usage. Despite the flawless MOT record, a physical inspection remains prudent given the car's low-mileage profile. Vehicles covering fewer than 5,000 miles annually often suffer from deterioration caused by standing rather than driving. Check the tyres for sidewall cracking and date codes, as rubber perishes with age regardless of tread depth. Inspect the brake discs and callipers for surface corrosion and binding, a common issue when short journeys prevent components from reaching operating temperature and clearing moisture. Examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing and corrosion, and scrutinise the exhaust system and underbody for structural rust, which can compromise integrity even when mileage remains minimal.
