Mechanical Assessment

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

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 3 March 2026 at 50,244 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety standards. Following a failure in April 2024, the owner successfully rectified the issues to achieve a pass on the same day, suggesting that the vehicle is responsive to mechanical attention when faults are identified. The mileage pattern is low for a ten-year-old Fiesta, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per annum. The data shows consistent usage over time, with an increase of 3,400 miles recorded between April 2023 and April 2024, and another 5,425 miles between April 2024 and March 2026. This low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though low-distance driving can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or brake components due to lack of use. While the recent clean records suggest well-maintained systems, a buyer should still inspect components prone to age-related wear. Focus on the brake discs for signs of surface corrosion and the calipers for binding, which can occur in vehicles that sit for periods. Given the vehicle's age, a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or per is necessary, as these parts can perish over time regardless of low mileage.
