2009 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · NV09 HAX

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean pass on February 12, 2026, at 128,864 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has achieved consecutive passes in the two most recent tests. While the record shows failures on the same days in the previous two years, the total lack of recorded defects on the successful passes indicates that the owner addressed any identified faults immediately prior to re-testing. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a seventeen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per year. Between the January 2024 test at 116,931 miles and the February 2025 test at 124,790 miles, the car covered 7,859 miles. The subsequent interval leading to the February 2026 test saw 4,073 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than prolonged neglect, which helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and seals associated with long stationary periods. Despite the lack of advisories in the most recent record, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of the structural integrity and suspension components. Given the age and mileage, this Fiesta is prone to corrosion on the sills and rear wheel arches, which the MOT tester may not have prioritised. Check for worn suspension bushes and signs of weeping from brake calipers, as these are common points of failure on this model that may not trigger between annual inspections until they reach a critical threshold.
