2009 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Diesel · GX59 ABV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from clean records to emerging mechanical defects. While it passed its most recent test in December 2025, it carried an advisory for corroded rear coil springs on both sides. This follows a 2024 warning regarding imbalanced brakes and tyre wear, indicating that the car is beginning to require more frequent attention as it ages and accumulates. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 11,400 miles per year. There was a notable period of high usage between November 2023 and December 2024, where the car covered over 15,000 miles in just thirteen months. However, the usage has stabilized recently, with roughly 14,000 miles recorded in the final year. Despite the typical annual mileage, the cumulative high-mileage puts significant stress on the drivetrain and suspension components. A prospective buyer should conduct a close inspection of the rear suspension assembly, as the corrosion on the coil springs suggests potential structural rust in that area. The imbalanced rear brakes noted in 2024 also demand a thorough check of the calipers and brake lines to ensure the system is not seizing or leaking. Additionally, the tyres should be monitored for uneven wear patterns, as previous records indicated edge wear which could point to alignment issues or worn suspension bushes.
