2004 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · GF04 UBH

The 7 October 2025 MOT at 95,425 miles resulted in a pass, but the tester flagged strong advisories on corroded front and rear coil springs, wheel distortion and worn brake discs, indicating a maintenance trend that remains unresolved rather than improving. The vehicle has accumulated roughly 4,300 miles per year since 2016, rising from 76,250 miles in 2016 to 95,425 miles in 2025; the intervals between tests show modest gains of 1,896 miles from 2024 to 2025 and 1,187 miles from 2022 to 2023, confirming a pattern of low, steady use with no rapid mileage spikes. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for rust and fatigue, verify the condition of the brake discs and pads for pitting or scoring, inspect brake pipes for corrosion and binding, and check wheel alignment and rim straightness, as these items have repeatedly appeared in the MOT history. Given the persistent advisories on structural corrosion and suspension components, the vehicle poses a moderate risk of future mechanical failure unless the owner addresses the underlying rust and replaces worn suspension parts before further driving.
