2018 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · GU68 AWW

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted in late September 2025 at 36,500 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This trend indicates a stable maintenance history where the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to passing safety standards without any recurring mechanical or structural failures appearing over the last four years. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old Fiesta, averaging approximately 4,500 miles annually. Between the September 2022 test at 16,332 miles and the September 2024 test at 27,525 miles, the car covered 11,193 miles. The more recent interval of 8,975 miles between 2024 and 2025 shows a slight increase in usage but remains well below average. This low-usage pattern typically suggests less wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though it can lead to age-related degradation of rubber parts rather than mileage-related mechanical failure. Because the record shows no historical advisories, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by low-mileage sitting. A buyer should check for brake corrosion on the discs and seized calipers, as infrequent use often leads to surface pitting. The sidewalls of the tyres should be inspected for cracking or dry rot, as rubber hardens regardless of tread depth. Despite the clean record, the chassis should be checked for any early surface rust that has not yet reached a structural failure point but warrants monitoring as the vehicle ages.
