2015 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · GL15 FEJ

The 2015 Ford Fiesta presents a stable and reassuring maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass at 90,905 miles on 9 February 2026. That most recent test recorded zero defects of any kind, indicating the vehicle met all DVSA standards for brakes, suspension, emissions, and structural integrity at the time of inspection. The record shows no recurring faults, no advisories, and no pattern of deterioration across the documented tests. This is a well-maintained example with a resolving or consistently sound mechanical history. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for an eleven-year-old supermini. The car covered roughly 9,835 miles between the February 2025 test at 81,070 miles and the February 2026 test at 90,905 miles, which aligns with the long-term average of approximately 8,264 miles per year. The earlier interval from March 2024 at 71,700 miles to February 2025 at 81,070 miles shows a similar pace of around 9,370 miles. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in recorded distance that would suggest long periods of disuse or odometer irregularities. The annual test intervals are consistent, with MOTs completed each February or early March, reflecting regular and responsible ownership. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still carry out a thorough physical inspection. The Fiesta's age and mileage mean consumable components such as tyres, brake discs, pads, and suspension bushes are approaching replacement intervals even if they passed the last test. Check the condition of the front and rear coil springs for corrosion or cracking, and inspect the exhaust system for rust-through, particularly around the rear silencer and joints. Examine the underside for any signs of structural corrosion on sills, subframes, and jacking points, as these can develop between tests without triggering a failure until advanced. A road test remains essential. Listen for knocks or clunks from the front suspension over speed bumps, which could indicate worn track rod ends or drop link bushes not yet severe enough to fail an MOT. Assess the handbrake hold on a slope and feel for any binding or uneven braking that might point to a sticking caliper. The clean MOT history is encouraging, but it only confirms condition on test day. A pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic will verify whether that standard has been maintained in the months since.
