2020 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · ML70 FXE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test in July 2025 at 65,131 miles was a pass, it flagged advisories for front brake discs and both front tyres reaching the legal limit. This follows a pattern where components are only addressed after they fail or approach failure, suggesting the previous owner waited for the MOT deadline before performing necessary repairs. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per year. Between August 2023 at 39,298 miles and July 2024 at 50,871 miles, the car covered over 11,500 miles, followed by another 14,200 miles before the July 2025 test. This steady usage indicates the car has been used for regular commuting rather than sitting idle, which is generally better for mechanical components. A buyer must focus their inspection on the braking system, as the record shows recurring issues with discs and pads across multiple axles. The July 2024 failure due to thin front inner pads and scored rear discs, followed by the 2025 advisory for pitted front discs, suggests the braking hardware may be nearing the end of its service life. You should also check for uneven wear on the tyres, as the history frequently notes tyres worn on the edge, which can indicate misaligned issues or worn suspension bushes.
