2008 Ford Fiesta Style Tdci 1.4L Heavy oil · FN08 AWU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent test on 4 January 2024 at 52,544 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a successful inspection in September 2022 at 40,282 miles, suggesting the vehicle has been kept in a consistent state of repair over recent years. The mileage pattern indicates exceptionally low usage for an 18-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,919 miles per year. A significant increase in annual distance occurred between the September 2021 test at 23,937 miles and the September 2022 test at 40,282 miles, where the vehicle covered over 16,000 miles in a single year. Prior to this period, the car was driven much more sparingly, often covering fewer than 1,500 miles annually. The current MOT record is now over two years out of date relative to July 2026, meaning the vehicle's current legal status and mechanical condition are unverified. The MOT history is remarkably clean, showing no recurring mechanical failures or structural issues. A single failure occurred on 2 September 2022 at 39,679 miles, but the record shows no specific defects were logged for that event, and the vehicle passed shortly after on 10 September 2022. The absence of advisories regarding brake wear, tyre tread, or suspension components across the entire history suggests a high standard of upkeep or very light mechanical stress. A prospective buyer should focus on the implications of low mileage and long periods of inactivity. While the records show no history of corrosion or suspension bush degradation, the low usage could mean rubber components, such as tyres and engine belts, have aged through time rather than wear. Given the gap since the last recorded test, a physical inspection of the braking system for seized calipers and a check of the chassis for surface rust is necessary to confirm the vehicle remains in the condition suggested by the digital history.
