2016 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · GF66 WGP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a worsening trend regarding basic consumable upkeep. While the most recent test in October 2025 at 140,221 miles passed, the tester flagged all four tyres as being near the legal limit with significant uneven wear. This indicates a persistent failure to address preventative maintenance, as the issue progressed from a single worn rear tyre to a full set requiring replacement over the last three years. At 140,221 miles, this Fiesta has averaged approximately 14,000 miles per year, which is significantly above the national average for a petrol car. The data shows consistent high-mileage usage, with 13,167 miles driven between the October 2024 and October 2025 tests. This high rate of use accelerates the wear and tear on the drivetrain and suspension components, and the recurring inner-edge wear on tyres suggests a long-term alignment issue or worn suspension bushings. A buyer must inspect the front suspension and geometry due to the repeated reports of inner-edge wear across multiple tests. The October 2024 failure for a damaged offside track rod end ball joint dust cover suggests that steering components are reaching the end of their service life. Physical inspection should check for play in the ball arms and worn absorbers, as the high mileage and inconsistent tyre wear strongly imply that these mechanical components have degraded beyond optimal condition.
