2011 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · FR11 DZM

The 2011 Ford Fiesta presents an inconsistent maintenance history, characterized by failures in the last two testing cycles. The most recent inspection on 31 July 2025 at 78,295 miles passed with no recorded defects, suggesting that the issues identified in previous years were addressed. However, the vehicle failed the test exactly one year prior in July 2024 despite having the same mileage reading, indicating a lapse in immediate repair or a specific major failure that required rectification between those intervals. Regarding usage patterns, the vehicle has covered 78,295 miles over approximately 15 years, averaging roughly 5,220 miles per annum. This is significantly below the national average for a vehicle of this age, which typically implies lower wear on mechanical components like the engine and gearbox. However, low mileage can sometimes lead to secondary issues with rubber-based components, brakes, and structural corrosion if the car sits for extended periods. The failure in 2023 at 53,019 miles shows that even with low mileage, the vehicle has required attention to specific safety-critical or structural elements at various stages to maintain roadworthiness standards. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking systems, as these are historically common areas of failure for this model and age. While the car passed its most recent test cleanly, the history of failures in 2023 and 2024 suggests that the vehicle may be subject to reactive rather than preventative maintenance. Verification of the structural integrity of the chassis and the condition of theんですよ components is essential to ensure that the low mileage has not masked underlying rust or seized parts.
