2018 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · MR05 LAS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a recent decline in basic consumable upkeep. While the most recent test in August 2025 at 38,125 miles resulted in a pass, the initial failure for insufficient washer fluid and tyre wear indicates that minor issues were only addressed upon failure. The recurring nature of the tyre defects across multiple tests suggests that the owner may be neglecting routine equipment checks until the annual MOT inspection arrives. At eight years old, the recorded mileage of 38,125 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 4,766 miles per year. The data shows a consistent usage pattern between 2022 and 2024, where the car covered roughly 5,000 miles annually. However, the jump of 11,959 miles between August 2024 and August 2025 represents a period of higher intensity. Low-mileage vehicles often suffer from accelerated degradation of rubber components and brake corrosion, which aligns with the perishing tyre noted in the record. A buyer must inspect the vehicle for alignment issues, as the repeated edge wear on the offside front and rear tyres in both 2024 and 2025 points to a geometry fault or suspension misalignment. The distorted nearside road wheel recorded at 26,166 miles also suggests the vehicle has suffered a significant impact, which warrants a check for tracking damage or bent components. Given the low annual mileage, the brake discs should be examined for surface pitting and the tyres sidewalls for dry cracking resulting from long periods of standing.
