2011 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · LG61 UTN

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a consistent passing record, although the most recent test on 13 February 2026 at 64,381 miles indicates the onset of wear on the braking system. The tester flagged both the nearside and offside front brake discs as worn, albeit not excessively. While the vehicle passed, these advisories suggest that the front braking components are approaching the end of their service life. A minor advisory regarding a loose nearside front body panel was also noted, which appears to be cosmetic rather than a structural integrity concern. The mileage history shows a pattern of low annual usage, averaging approximately 4,292 miles per year over its 15-year lifespan. This low-intensity driving is evident in the steady progression from 19,657 miles in October 2014 to the current 64,381 miles. The data shows a very consistent testing interval, with annual MOTs occurring almost every February since 2021. This regularity suggests a conscientious approach to compliance, even though the low mileage may contribute to the age-related degradation seen in the rubber components. A buyer should pay close attention to the condition of the tyres and suspension. The February 2025 test at 60,397 miles highlighted cracking and perishing on both rear tyres due to age, a recurring issue seen as far back as 2017. This pattern suggests that while the car is driven infrequently, the rubber components are reaching their natural shelf life. The suspension history shows a previous failure in February 2022 for a worn offside front lower suspension arm ball joint, so a physical inspection of all bushes, ball joints, and shock absorbers is necessary to ensure no further deterioration has occurred. The braking system requires a thorough check. Following the recent advisories on the front discs, a technician should inspect the thickness of the pads and the surface condition of the discs to prevent binding or reduced stopping efficiency. Given the history of thin brake pads in 2016 and 2017, ensuring the entire braking circuit is well-maintained is a priority. Overall, the vehicle appears to be a low-mileage example that has been maintained to a sufficient standard, provided the age-related wear on consumables is addressed.
