2004 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Diesel · FP54 VSG

The 2004 Ford Fiesta shows a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent test on 13 October 2022 at 177,516 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance history is clean across the available entries and gives no indication of worsening mechanical condition. At 22 years old the vehicle presents as structurally sound on paper. Mileage sits at 177,516 against a roughly typical annual average of 8,069 miles. The record jumps from 172,041 miles on 14 October 2021 to 177,516 by 13 October 2022, a modest 5,475-mile year that reflects light use. A same-day fail and pass on 14 October 2021 at 172,037 and 172,041 miles respectively shows a retest after a non-defect administrative failure, with no faults raised either time. The sparse three-entry history limits deeper trend analysis but reveals no neglect signals. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers given the vehicle's age and 177,516 miles. Corrosion on sills and subframes commonly affects 2004 Fiestas and the MOT record cannot confirm hidden structural integrity. Exhaust emissions and tyre condition should be verified, as consumable wear is absent from the clean advisories but expected at this mileage.
