2016 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · GD66 YTA

This vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a clean record of five consecutive passes. The most recent test on 4 December 2025 at 2,570 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates the car has remained in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without any recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is exceptionally low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 257 miles per year. Between 10 December 2021 at 1,876 miles and 4 December 2025 at 2,570 miles, the car covered only 694 miles over nearly four years. Such minimal usage suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods standing still, which presents a different set of risks than high mileage wear. A buyer must prioritise an inspection of the braking system and tyres. Long periods of inactivity often lead to binding calipers and brake disc corrosion, even if the tester did not flag them during the December 2025 inspection. The rubber components, including tyres and suspension bushes, may have perished or developed flat spots due to lack of use rather than tread wear. Check the battery health and fluid condition. Low mileage vehicles often suffer from battery degradation and oil sludge if the engine is not run long enough to reach operating temperature. Inspect the fuel system for signs of stagnation and verify that the vehicle starts and idles smoothly to ensure the low usage has not compromised the drivetrain.
