2014 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · ML14 XGR

The vehicle presents a stable profile of roadworthiness based on its recent inspection history. The most recent test in February 2026 at 77,616 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a period of clean passes over the previous three years, indicating that the primary mechanical and safety components are currently being maintained to a standard that avoids the recurring structural failures often seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a twelve-year-old Ford, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per annum. Between February 2024 and February 2026, the car covered 5,796 miles, suggesting a low-intensity usage profile. The only anomaly in the data occurred in March 2023, where the vehicle failed at 66,674 miles before passing just one mile later at 66,675 miles. This suggests a specific, minor issue was rectified rectified immediately rather than a trend of mechanical neglect or long-term wear. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade with age regardless of low mileage. While the MOT record is clean, the age of the vehicle means rubber components such as suspension bushes, engine mounts, and tyre boots may show signs of cracking or perish rot. Given the lack of advisories in the latest tests, a visual check for surface corrosion on common Fiesta Fiesta areas like the rear arches and sills is necessary to ensure structural integrity remains sound beyond what the MOT tester covers.
