2017 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · FM66 RWF

The 2017 Ford Fiesta presents a stable and unblemished mechanical record, passing its most recent MOT on 2 February 2026 at 27,257 miles with zero defects. This clean sheet indicates the vehicle currently meets all required safety and emissions standards without any immediate structural or mechanical concerns. The absence of advisories or failures across the last five consecutive tests demonstrates a consistent maintenance trend, suggesting the previous owner kept the car in sound operating condition. Accumulating just 27,257 miles over nine years equates to roughly 3,000 miles annually, classifying this as a very low-mileage example. The mileage progression reveals a steady but minimal accumulation: the car traveled 1,846 miles between January 2022 and January 2023, 1,587 miles between 2023 and 2024, 1,504 miles between 2024 and 2025, and 2,162 miles between 2025 and 2026. Such low annual usage often points to short, localized journeys rather than long-distance motorway driving. While low mileage reduces wear on consumables like brake discs and tyres, prolonged periods of standing or frequent short trips can cause other issues, such as battery drain or moisture buildup in the exhaust system. Despite the pristine MOT record, a physical inspection remains essential due to the specific wear patterns associated with low-mileage urban runabouts. A buyer should closely examine the condition of the tyres, as low annual mileage means the rubber ages and perishes through UV exposure and standing rather than tread wear. Suspension bushes and coil springs may have deteriorated from sitting in one position or enduring repeated low-speed impacts over potholes. The exhaust system requires checking for internal corrosion caused by condensation from short journeys that never reach optimal operating temperature. Inspecting the brake discs for surface rust and verifying the battery's cold-cranking health will confirm whether the vehicle's light usage has caused any latent deterioration.
