AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2004 Ford Fiesta passed its most recent MOT on 17 February 2022 at 99,122 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend at the time of that test. The single clean pass gives no evidence of worsening faults or recurring advisories across the supplied history. The recorded mileage of 99,122 over roughly 22 years equates to about 4,506 miles per year, which is low for a car of this age. The MOT record shows only one entry, dated February 2022, so we cannot chart annual accumulation or identify gaps in testing before that point. The low annual average suggests lighter use or possible periods of storage, though standing time can conceal corrosion or perished rubber components not visible in a single test. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe for corrosion given the vehicle's age and likely intermittent use. Brake discs and calipers may have suffered from standing moisture, so check for binding or pitting. The exhaust and emissions system should be reviewed for rot despite the clean 2022 pass. Without further MOT entries, the history offers limited insight into owner care beyond a compliant 2022 presentation. Arrange an independent inspection of structural integrity and consumables before purchase, as the sparse record leaves earlier upkeep unverified.
