2018 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · NJ68 KXR

The 2018 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 12 July 2025 at 38,537 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing a clean sequence of examinations. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the available history, indicating the vehicle has not displayed worsening conditions over time. Recorded mileage shows light use for an eight-year-old car. The tester logged 22,892 miles on 12 August 2022, 27,631 on 26 July 2023, 31,658 on 24 July 2024, and 38,537 on 12 July 2025. That equates to roughly 4,800 miles per year with no abrupt jumps or dormant gaps. The 24 July 2024 entry shows both a fail and a pass on the same day at identical mileage with no defects listed, which points to an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical defect. The sparse, clean record gives little evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished MOT trail. Low annual mileage often means prolonged standing periods, which can degrade tyres, brake discs, and suspension bushes through flat-spotting and surface corrosion even when the tester finds nothing to record. The absence of advisories does not confirm the condition of coil springs, calipers, or underbody structural integrity beyond the test date. Given the clean history and low use, previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to minimum legal standard or better. Verify service records independently and check for intermittent faults that a single annual test cannot capture.
