2008 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · MK58 AEU

The 2008 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 20 August 2025 at 54,340 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable and clean. Every annual test from 17 August 2022 through to the 2025 pass shows a straightforward pass with no advisories or faults logged, indicating the vehicle has been presented in a condition acceptable to DVSA standards each time. The recorded mileage sits at 54,340 against an eighteen year lifespan, equating to roughly 3,019 miles per year. The odometer climbed from 43,130 on 17 August 2022 to 47,915 by 24 August 2023, then 51,511 on 28 August 2024, and 54,340 on the 2025 tests. This steady annual increment of around 3,500 to 4,000 miles reflects light, consistent use with no gaps or sudden accumulation. Low yearly coverage such as this often points to short local journeys and possible prolonged standing periods, though the record itself remains sparse and free of flagged wear. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and likely intermittent use. Standing vehicles commonly develop perished rubber components and surface corrosion on structural members even when MOT tests show clear. The tester logged a fail on 20 August 2025 at 54,336 miles with no defects cited, immediately followed by a pass at 54,340 miles the same day, which suggests an administrative or identification error at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. No recurring advisories on tyres, exhaust emissions, or binding calipers appear in the data, so consumable neglect is not evidenced. Previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance. Verify the V5C and confirm the duplicate 20 August 2025 entries with DVSA before purchase, as the twin records warrant clarification despite the clean mechanical picture.
