AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following its most recent MOT pass on December 16, 2025, at 57,697 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable as the record shows a consistent pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes on the same day. These failures in April 2025 and December 2025 resulted in no recorded defects, suggesting that minor issues were identified and rectified instantly before the re-test rather than indicating a systemic mechanical failure. At ten years old, the recorded 57,697 miles represent a low annual average of approximately 5,770 miles. This usage pattern is significantly below the national average for a Ford Fiesta, indicating lighter road use. Between the April 2024 test at 47,238 miles and the April 2025 test at 52,621 miles, the car covered roughly 5,300 miles. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, long periods of low usage can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or seized brake calipers due to lack of consistent use. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection focusing on the suspension and braking system, as the recurring same-day failures often relate to minor items like bulbs, wiper blades, or slight light adjustments. Inspect the suspension bushes for cracks and the coil springs for signs of fatigue despite the low mileage. Given the age of the vehicle, check the structural integrity for corrosion on the sills and rear mounting points, as low mileage does not protect a chassis from environmental rust over a decade.
