2006 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · KT06 RWO

The 2006 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy following the most recent DVSA test, where it passed on 2 June 2025 at 86,013 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with three consecutive annual passes and no advisories or mechanical faults flagged across the full history. The repeated fail and pass pairs on the same dates in 2024 and 2025 show administrative re-tests rather than mechanical defects, as the tester recorded no defects on either attempt. Recorded mileage stands at 86,013 miles against a 20-year lifespan, averaging roughly 4,301 miles per year. The car covered 4,100 miles between the May 2023 test at 78,497 miles and June 2024 at 82,597 miles, then 3,416 miles to June 2025. This low annual use implies light running or extended standing periods, though the record shows no gaps longer than the standard twelve-month cycle. The clean sheet across all entries means no corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions issues were raised by any examiner. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the sills and subframe, as MOT passes with no advisories do not capture early-stage structural rust on a two-decade-old hatchback. The low mileage and same-day fail/pass pattern suggest the previous keeper maintained basic statutory compliance but may have left the car idle for weeks at a time, raising the risk of perished rubber components or seized calipers not yet visible to a tester. Check tyre sidewall condition and brake binding on a road trial, since long storage promotes flat spots and sticky slides despite the clean MOT trail. The verified history supports a sound purchase, but age-related wear on consumables remains the buyer's verification burden.
