2018 Ford Fiesta 1.1L Petrol · MD68 ADU

The 2018 Ford Fiesta maintains an exceptionally clean MOT record, indicating a stable and well-managed mechanical state. With the most recent test conducted on 8 September 2025 at 76,509 miles resulting in a clear pass with no defects or advisories, the vehicle shows no evidence of recurring mechanical issues or systemic neglect. The consistency of these clean passes over the last five years suggests that the previous owner adhered to a proactive maintenance schedule, ensuring that consumables and structural components remained within regulatory standards. The vehicle has covered 76,509 miles over eight years, averaging approximately 9,560 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage patterns for this class of car. The MOT history is remarkably consistent, with tests occurring annually in September, save for a brief shift in late 2021. There are no significant gaps in the testing timeline that would suggest long-term storage or periods of neglect. The steady accumulation of mileage indicates that the vehicle has been used regularly, which is generally preferable to long-term inactivity that can lead to seized calipers or perished rubber components. Given the absence of recorded advisories, the primary focus for an in-person inspection should shift toward components that typically reach their service life at this mileage. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are common wear items on the Fiesta platform that may not always trigger an MOT failure until they reach an advanced state of degradation. Inspect the brake discs and pads for signs of scoring or uneven wear, as these are consumable parts that may have been replaced outside of the MOT cycle. While the record is clean, confirm that the engine bay is free from fluid leaks and that the tyres retain sufficient tread depth across the full width of the contact patch.
