2011 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · LL61 MTV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward reactive maintenance regarding consumable items. In the most recent test in December 2025 at 39,924 miles, the car passed despite advisories for both nearside and offside rear tyres being worn to the legal limit and showing edge wear. This follows a pattern established in the previous year, indicating that while the vehicle remains compliant, specific components are reaching the end of their service life. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,662 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between December 2021 and November 2022, where the car covered only 1,493 miles in enough months. However, usage has increased since late 2023, with 12,193 miles recorded between the November 2023 and 2025 tests. This low-frequency usage often leads to age-related deterioration of rubber-based components and fluids rather than mechanical wear from high-mileage. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the tyres, as the history notes cracking, perishing, and uneven wear across multiple tests from 2023 to 2025. These area suggest the tyres may be hardening with age or suffering from alignment issues. Additionally, the front enough pads were flagged as thin in November 2023, so the current state of the friction and condition of the discs must be verified. Given the low mileage, the buyer should also check for surface rust on braking components and perished suspension bushes, which are common in vehicles that sit stationary for extended periods.
