2009 Ford Fusion 1.6L Diesel · LL59 TXH

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its recent testing history. The most recent inspection conducted on 27 November 2025 at 72,813 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating the car currently meets all minimum safety standards. Following a single failure in late 2023, the vehicle has passed three consecutive tests without advisories, suggesting that any previous mechanical issues were successfully rectified. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 17-year-old Ford. At 72,813 miles, the car has averaged approximately 4,283 miles per year since its registration. Between November 2024 and November 2025, the vehicle covered 5,294 miles, showing consistent but low-intensity usage. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it also increases the risk of age-related components like rubber degrading or fluid contamination due to long periods of relative inactivity. While the MOT record shows a lack of recurring faults, a buyer must verify the condition of common aged, low-mileage vehicles. Inspect the suspension bushes for cracking and the coil springs for corrosion fractures, as these often fail regardless of distance driven. Check the brake discs for surface pitting or heavy rusting, as calipers can seize if the car sits stationary. Given the age of the Fusion, a thorough physical inspection of the sills and wheel arches is essential to ensure structural rust has not compromised the chassis beyond what a standard MOT test might highlight.
