2004 Ford Fusion 2 16V 1.4L Other · NUI 9496

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile based on the available records, with the most recent test on 27 May 2023 resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. The absence of advisories or failures across the last two inspections suggests a car that has been kept in a roadworthy condition without recurring mechanical faults. The mileage is notably low for a twenty-two year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,394 miles per year. Between the February 2022 test at 89,083 miles and the May 2023 test at 96,660 miles, the car covered 7,577 miles. This indicates a period of moderate use followed by a significant gap in testing, as the vehicle has not undergone a recorded MOT inspection in over three years relative to the current date of July 2026. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the chassis and suspension components. Low-mileage vehicles of this era often suffer from perished rubber suspension bushes and seized brake calipers due to long periods of inactivity. The lack of recent MOT data means the current state of the brake discs and tyre perishability is unknown. Particular attention should be paid to structural corrosion, especially around the sills and suspension mounting points, which is common for Ford models of this vintage. While the 2023 record was clean, the extended period of dormancy since that test increases the risk of fluid leaks or battery degradation. A full mechanical sympathy check is required to ensure the vehicle has not deteriorated while standing.
