2017 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · LS10 ABS

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 3 November 2022 at 45,085 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This suggests that the previous owner maintained a high standard of upkeep, as the mechanical and structural components met all DVSA requirements during the final recorded inspection. The mileage pattern is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. Between April 2020 and November 2022, the car covered roughly 12,654 miles, indicating regular but light annual use. However, there is a significant gap in the record between the November 2022 test and the current date of July 2026. The vehicle has not undergone an official inspection in nearly three years. This period of potential inactivity can lead to degradation of rubber-based components and fluid quality, despite the low odometer reading. Given the lack of recorded advisories in the past, a buyer should focus on signs of age associated with low-mile operation. This includes checking for perished or cracked rubber parts, such as suspension bushes, tyre sidewalls, and wiper blades, which often dry out when standing. The buyer should also inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, which frequently occurs if the car sat for long periods. Since the MOT is now significantly overdue, a thorough physical inspection is mandatory to ensure no structural corrosion or mechanical failures have developed since the last recorded test.
