2016 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · LJ66 AHZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent history of MOT passes. The most recent test on 12 August 2025 at 33,470 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, despite a recorded failure on the same day with no listed faults. This suggests an administrative error or a minor issue that was rectified immediately, as the vehicle has maintained a clean record regarding mechanical and structural failures over the last four years. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,347 miles per year. Between August 2022 at 25,729 miles and August 2025 at 33,470 miles, the car covered only 7,741 miles over three years. This pattern indicates minimal annual usage, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine internal components. However, such low mileage often carries the risk of age-related degradation in rubber components and fluid-related issues if the car has sat stationary for extended periods. Because the MOT record shows no recurring advisories for suspension bushes, brake calipers, or exhaust corrosion, a buyer should focus on physical signs of low-mileage neglect. Inspect the tyres for flat spotting or sidew cracking, as rubber hardens over time regardless of tread depth. Check the brake discs for surface pitting or rust which frequently occurs on vehicles that are not driven frequently enough to clear them. Ensure the service history reflects annual oil changes, as low mileage does not negate the need for time-based maintenance intervals to prevent engine sludge.
