2011 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · LR61 VCU

A consistently clean roadworthiness record defines this vehicle, with a total absence of advisories or recorded defects over the last several years. This stable trend was maintained through the latest pass on 16 December 2025. While the record shows failures on the same dates as passes in December 2023 and December 2025, the lack of listed defects suggests these were minor issues rectified immediately, leaving a history that indicates high mechanical integrity. The recorded mileage of 36,159 miles is exceptionally low for a fifteen year old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,411 miles per year. This usage pattern suggests the car has not been subjected to the typical wear and tear associated with daily commuting. Mechanically, while the engine and drivetrain have seen minimal use, such low accumulation often means that rubber components and seals have aged chronologically rather than through operational wear. Because the DVSA records are devoid of specific advisories, there are no flagged components requiring immediate attention. The test drive should instead be used to verify the absence of age-related degradation. Pay close attention to the suspension for any knocks or clunks over uneven surfaces and ensure the steering is precise without any unexpected pull or heaviness, which can occur when a vehicle is used sparingly. Focus the physical inspection on the brake system and underbody. Check for any binding in the calipers or a spongy pedal feel that might not have been captured during the static test. A thorough check for surface corrosion on the subframe and sills is necessary given the vehicle's age, and the engine bay should be inspected for any oil misting around the gaskets that can develop during periods of low activity.
