2009 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · FN58 CMU

The 2009 Ford Fiesta presents a stable and improving mechanical trend, culminating in a clean pass on 27 June 2025 at 123,498 miles with zero defects recorded. Following a failed test in October 2022 at 114,755 miles, the subsequent two tests show a complete absence of advisories or failures, indicating that any historical issues were promptly rectified and the vehicle has since required no corrective maintenance. This pattern suggests a conscientious approach to upkeep in recent years, with the car currently meeting all roadworthiness standards without reservation. The mileage accumulation aligns closely with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging roughly 7,265 miles annually. Between October 2021 and October 2022, the odometer advanced just 595 miles, indicating a period of very light use or potential stationary storage. Usage picked up notably thereafter, covering 5,795 miles between October 2022 and August 2024, followed by a further 2,948 miles by the most recent test in June 2025. The current recorded mileage matches the June 2025 test exactly, meaning the car has covered zero miles in the thirteen months leading up to today's date of 8 July 2026. This prolonged stationary period warrants attention. Although the MOT record is entirely free of recurring structural or mechanical faults, the recent thirteen-month period of inactivity demands a thorough physical inspection. Tyres must be checked for flat-spotting and sidewall perishing from prolonged standing, while brake discs should be examined for surface corrosion that could cause binding or judder. The suspension bushes and coil springs require scrutiny for deterioration, particularly if the vehicle has been parked on uneven ground. Fluid levels and the condition of the exhaust system should also be verified, as moisture accumulation during extended standing can accelerate internal corrosion.
