2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · OP51 AND

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a period of intermittent mechanical failures. The most recent MOT test conducted in June 2025 at 77,067 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets minimum safety and environmental standards. This follows a trend where previous failures in 2023 and 2024 were rectified, suggesting the owner is proactive in addressing identified faults to maintain consecutive passing results. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a low-to-moderate profile, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year. Between the June 2023 and June 2025 tests, the vehicle covered 12,131 miles, showing a steady and predictable usage pattern. The short interval between the June 2024 failure and the July 2024 pass, where only 62 miles were recorded, indicates that the re-test occurred immediately after the necessary repairs were performed, rather than allowing the defects to persist over a long annual interval. While the most recent record is clean, the failures at 64,936 and 72,947 miles point toward components that require attention. A buyer should inspect the suspension system, specifically the bushes and coil springs, as these are common points of failure on Fiest of this era. Given the age of the vehicle, a physical inspection for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches is also necessary to ensure that integrity has not degraded despite the relatively low mileage. Checking the brake system for binding calipers or uneven pad wear is advisable to confirm the repairs from the previous failures remain effective.
