2017 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · MA17 AAE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent inspection on 27 January 2026 with 66,896 miles. While the record shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful retests on the same day, the final results consistently show no defects or advisories across the last three years. This suggests the previous owner was proactive in rectifying issues immediately upon discovery rather than allowing ongoing mechanical degradation or structural neglect. The mileage progression is consistent with average annual use for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,400 miles per year. Between February 2024 at 46,710 miles and January 2025 at 54,794 miles, the car covered 8,084 miles. Another 12,102 miles were clocked between the January 2025 and January 2026 tests. This regular usage is generally beneficial for mechanical components as it prevents the seal drying and brake corrosion often associated with long periods of inactivity. Given the lack of recorded advisories in the MOT history, a physical inspection should focus on standard wear items that are not fully monitored during annual testing. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, which are common points of wear on the Ford Fiesta at this age. Additionally, check the brake discs for uneven thinning or pitting and inspect the tyre tread depth and sidewall cracking, as the MOT only checks for minimum legal limits on these components.
