2008 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · LL08 XOH

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, maintaining a clean pass record over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted in January 2026 at 121,901 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car is currently meeting all statutory safety standards. This follows a period of consistency where a single failure in early 2024 was rectified immediately to achieve a pass, suggesting that the current owner is proactive in addressing identified faults to maintain a valid test certificate. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per annum. Between January 2023 and January 2026, the car covered 6,754 miles, showing a steady usage pattern of roughly 2,250 miles per annual interval. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which often leads to perished rubber components or corroded brake assemblies. The lack of sudden spikes in mileage indicates a predictable driving history rather than erratic heavy use. While the digital MOT history is clean, a buyer must focus their physical inspection on components common to a Fiesta of this age and mileage. Given the 121,000-mile mark, close attention should be paid to the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of tearing or sagging. The buyer should also inspect the structural integrity of the sills and rear wheel arches, as these models are prone to hidden corrosion over nearly two decades. Checking the rear brake calipers for binding and inspecting the exhaust system for thinning is also advisable as these are frequent points of failure that do not always trigger an MOT fail until they reach a critical state.
