2020 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · GD69 VGU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 22 May 2026 at 43,908 miles. While the most recent result is a pass, the failure on that same day indicates a lapse in pre-test inspection standards. The tester identified a dangerous nearside rear tyre with a structural bulge, a perished offside rear tyre, and an obstructed windscreen affecting the driver's view. The fact that these issues were rectified immediately to achieve a pass suggests the owner is reactive rather than proactive regarding essential maintenance. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,300 miles per year. Data from the 2023 test at 25,420 miles to the 2026 test at 43,908 miles shows a steady usage profile without significant periods of neglect or rapid accumulation. This low annual mileage typically limits wear on the drivetrain components, suspension, and braking system. The clean records between 2023 and 2025 suggest that the primary mechanical integrity of the car remained in good condition during that interval. A buyer should verify the physical condition of the tyres to ensure no further structural failures exist, as the recent failure highlighted rubber perishing and impact damage. Given the low mileage, the windscreen should also be inspected for stone chips or pitting that may have developed over time despite low use. The history shows no recurring structural corrosion or persistent mechanical faults, but the recent failure warrants a thorough check of all exterior-related items and glasswork before finalizing the purchase.
