2005 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · FP05 FOT

The 2005 Ford Fiesta presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 16 December 2025 at 85,954 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. The day prior, on 15 December 2025 at the same mileage, the vehicle failed without any defects listed, a clerical or administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. No advisories or defects appear across the full five-year record. Annual mileage sits low for a 21-year-old car. The records show 74,215 miles in December 2022, 78,883 in December 2023, 82,238 in December 2024, and 85,954 in December 2025. That is roughly 3,700 miles added per year, matching the lifetime average of about 4,093 miles annually. The sparse, clean history gives no evidence of rapid accumulation or standing gaps beyond light use. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody structural integrity. Low mileage with long idle periods often hides corrosion and perished rubber that a pass with no advisories will not capture. The December 2025 failure with zero defects suggests administrative processing rather than owner neglect, but the same test cycle shows the seller left the car untested until the deadline. Given the absent advisories, no recurring mechanical trend warrants concern from the data alone. Verify the December 2025 failure reason at the DVSA portal and confirm the odometer reading matches service books before purchase.
