2015 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · FN64 VLT

The maintenance trend remains stable, culminating in a clean pass at the most recent inspection. On 11 August 2023 at 87,019 miles, the Fiesta passed with zero defects recorded. A week earlier, on 4 August 2023 at 86,633 miles, the vehicle failed, yet the record lists no specific defects for that failure. The immediate pass seven days later indicates the fault was minor or rectified before the retest. The vehicle averages roughly 7,911 miles per year, a typical figure for an 11-year-old supermini. Between July 2021 and August 2022, the mileage climbed steadily from 63,372 to 71,252 miles. However, the record shows a notable acceleration from August 2022 to August 2023, with the odometer jumping from 71,252 to 87,019 miles—a spike of 15,767 miles in a single year. This recent surge suggests a shift from light local use to higher motorway mileage or a long commute, accelerating wear on consumables, suspension, and drivetrain components. The MOT history presents no recurring mechanical faults, but the recent rapid mileage accumulation warrants a focused physical inspection. A buyer should closely examine the condition of the brake discs and pads, as high-mileage use accelerates wear significantly. Suspension bushes and coil springs require scrutiny for fatigue, given the increased annual usage. The tyres must be checked for uneven wear, which could indicate alignment issues from sustained driving. Finally, inspect the exhaust system and underbody for corrosion, as the vehicle's age makes it susceptible to structural rust, even if it passed its last test cleanly.
