2016 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · MW66 YAH

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent test on November 2025 at 17,784 miles. While a failure was recorded in November 2024, the immediate rectification allowed the car to pass the re-test without further recorded defects. The lack of recurring advisories across the last three years suggests that the owner is proactive in addressing mechanical issues before they escalate into significant structural degradation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,778 miles per year. Data from October 2022 at 12,559 miles to the 2025 test at 17,784 miles shows a consistent, low-intensity usage pattern. This low annual mileage typically results in less wear on the drivetrain and engine internal components, though it introduces specific risks associated with long periods of standing. The intervals between tests are regular, suggesting the car has remained in a consistent environment rather than being left neglected for extended years. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that suffer from lack of use rather than high-mile wear. Check for seized brake calipers or corroded brake discs, as low-use vehicles often suffer from surface rust and seizing. Inspect rubber components such as suspension bushes and tyres for dry cracking, which occurs with age regardless of distance driven. Given the failure in late 2024, verify the specific nature of that fault to ensure the repair was permanent and not merely a temporary fix.
