2018 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · FP18 RZG

The 2018 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 8 March 2025 at 43,431 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Every annual examination from 16 March 2022 through to the 2025 test returned a pass with no advisories, showing the vehicle has avoided recurring mechanical or structural faults across its recorded history. The mileage pattern reflects light use for an eight-year-old car. The record shows 35,707 miles on 16 March 2022, rising only to 36,036 by 31 March 2023, then 37,454 on 21 March 2024 and 43,431 on 8 March 2025. That equates to roughly 5,400 miles per year, with the largest single-year jump of about 5,977 miles occurring between March 2024 and March 2025. No gaps or missed tests appear in the chain, and the clean slate of advisories means consumable wear such as tyres, brake discs, and suspension bushes was not flagged at any stage. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection before purchase. Low mileage combined with the 2022 to 2023 period of near-dormancy, where only 329 miles were covered, raises the prospect of perished rubber components, degraded brake caliper seals, or shallow corrosion on structural underbody points not yet visible to the MOT tester. The absence of recorded faults does not exempt the car from age-related degradation of dampers, exhaust hangers, and coolant hoses. Given the unbroken pass record and modest annual coverage, previous keepers appear to have maintained statutory testing discipline though the sparse mileage suggests the Fiesta may have stood unused for extended spells. Verify the condition of tyres, brake friction materials, and subframe integrity in person, as standing vehicles often conceal moisture-driven rust and flat-spotted tyres absent from a clean MOT ledger.
