2016 Ford Fiesta 1.5L Diesel · LC66 WFW

The 2026-07-07 MOT at 147,746 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the vehicle currently meets the DVSA roadworthiness standards. Across the eight recorded tests the mileage has risen steadily, and the only recurring issues have been lighting faults that were corrected before each subsequent pass, suggesting a consistent maintenance approach. The mileage trajectory shows roughly 25,000 miles added each year since 2022, moving from 62,459 miles in July 2022 to 147,746 miles in July 2026, which equates to about 14,800 miles per annum for a ten‑year‑old car. No extended periods of inactivity are evident, indicating continuous use that can accelerate wear on consumables and mechanical components. A buyer should therefore examine the rear suspension bushes and shock absorbers for oil misting or reduced damping, as flagged in the 2021 test, and verify the condition of the front tyre tread and edge wear noted then. Inspection of the braking system, including the condition of the discs and the operation of the calipers, is advisable given the high annual mileage, while a visual check for structural rust around the wheel arches and chassis rails should be carried out. Overall, the vehicle’s recent MOT outcome is satisfactory, but the documented mileage and recurring lighting and suspension advisories warrant a thorough in‑person assessment of suspension components, tyre condition, brake health and any signs of corrosion before purchase.
