2006 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · NL06 ALO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, demonstrating a consistent maintenance trend despite its age. The most recent test on 6 April 2025 at 132,553 miles passed with no recorded defects. This follows a curious failure just two days prior at 132,547 miles which also listed no defects, likely indicating a clerical administrative error or a re-test requirement that was immediately rectified. The lack of advisories in both the 2024 and 2025 tests suggests the vehicle is currently meeting all required mechanical standards. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a twenty-year-old Ford, averaging approximately 6,600 miles per year. The record shows a steady accumulation of 17,635 miles between December 2022 and April 2024, followed by another 13,243 miles in the following fourteen months. This regular usage suggests the car has been kept in active use rather than left to sit for long periods, which often helps keep seals dry and components from seizing. There are no significant spikes in mileage that would suggest recent heavy use or rushed mechanical failures. While the MOT history is clean, a buyer must still inspect for common vulnerabilities inherent to this era of Fiesta. Given the 132,000-mile mark, a physical check of the sills, rear wheel arches, and floor pans is essential as structural corrosion often develops undetected between test cycles. The buyer should also examine the suspension bushes and rubber components for cracking, as these are typical points of failure on high-mileage vehicles regardless of a clean MOT record.
