2015 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · FX65 LGZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of improvement following previous mechanical concerns. The most recent test conducted on 28 June 2025 at 42,063 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the issues identified in earlier years have been addressed. This consistency suggests the car is currently in a sound mechanical state relative to the minimum requirements of the annual inspection test. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,800 miles per year. There is a visible gap in usage between November 2022 and July 2024, where the car covered only 3,349 miles over nearly twenty months. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long periods of potential inactivity implied by the low figures between tests can sometimes accelerate the degradation of rubber components or lead to fluid ingress, though the record does not show any resulting failures in the recent tests. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and structural integrity, given the 2020 test at 22,662 miles. The tester flagged a worn offside rear suspension arm bush and noted the H-frame starting to perish. While the vehicle passed subsequent tests without advisories, a professional is required to check for the extent of surface rust on that subframe assembly to ensure the corrosion has not progressed. Additionally, the fractured nearside rear coil spring from 2018 and the distorted offside front wheel from 2020 should be verified for any signs of poor repair or uneven tyre wear.
