2008 Ford Fiesta 2.0L Petrol · GY08 PTZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean MOT history over the last several years. The most recent test in February 2025 at 129,153 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. This follows a period of consistent passes back to 2021, suggesting that the previous owners have maintained the mechanical and safety components sufficiently well to avoid recurring MOT failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,175 miles per year. Between December 2021 and February 2025, the car covered 20,130 miles, representing a steady usage rate rather than long periods of neglect or heavy commuting. The single failure in December 2022 at 117,928 miles was rectified quickly, with a pass just two days later, which points to a minor issue that was addressed immediately rather than a deep-seated mechanical failure. Despite the lack of advisories, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on common wear points for a Fiesta of this age. At nearly 130,000 miles, the suspension bushes, coil springs, and rubber mounts are likely nearing fatigue or cracking. You should also check for early signs of surface corrosion on the vehicle's sills and wheel arches, as MOT tests only flag structural rust once it becomes a safety risk. Examining the brake discs for thinning and checking for binding calipers is also advisable to ensure the clean MOT record reflects the actual state of the braking system.
