2009 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · FY09 TMV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the recent MOT history. The most recent test on 16 July 2025 at 114,054 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety and emissions standards. Following a single failure in June 2023, the vehicle has maintained two consecutive clean passes without advisories, suggesting that the previous owner was proactive in addressing issues as they arose. The mileage pattern is consistent with a lightly used seventeen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. Between the July 2022 test at 90,803 miles and the July 2025 test at 114,054 miles, the car covered 23,251 miles, showing a steady rate of use. The jump of 10,411 miles recorded between June 2023 and July 2024 indicates a period of higher activity, yet the vehicle handled this load without any recorded mechanical failures during the subsequent inspection. While the digital record is clean, a physical inspection should focus on the structural integrity of a Fiesta of this age. Given the age of the vehicle, one must check for significant corrosion on the sills and rear suspension mounting points where rust is common in this specific model. The buyer should also verify the condition of the suspension bushes and rubber components, as low-mileage cars often perish or crack over time regardless of distance driven. Checking the brake discs for pitting and ensuring the calipers are not binding would also be a standard and necessary step for a vehicle exceeding 110,000 miles.
