2009 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · MX59 RZP

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, passing its most recent MOT test in November 2025 at 95,554 miles. The maintenance trend shows a pattern of immediate rectification following failures rather than an escalating mechanical decline. In both 2024 and 2025, the car failed the initial inspection but passed just days later upon a re-test. This suggests the owner is proactive in addressing specific compliance issues once flagged by the tester, and the vehicle remains free of deep-seated mechanical neglect. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 95,554 miles represents an average usage of approximately 5,600 miles per year, which is significantly below the national average for a passenger vehicle. The data shows a consistent rate of use with roughly 11,500 miles covered between December 2023 and December 2024, and another 11,500 miles covered between December 2024 and November 2025. This low mileage reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it increases the likelihood of age-related degradation in rubber components and fluid-related issues. While the MOT history is remarkably clean of recurring advisories, a buyer must inspect for specific issues common to low-mileage, older Fords. Focus on the suspension bushes and coil springs, which can perish or fatigue over time regardless of distance driven. The buyer should also check the brake calipers for corrosion or seizing, as infrequent use often leads to surface rust buildup. Additionally, verify the structural integrity around the sills and wheel arches to ensure the chassis remains structurally sound despite its age.
