2020 Ford Fiesta Stline X Edition T Mhev 1.0L Petrol · OY70 XRE

The vehicle presents a stable and largely positive maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 22 September 2025 at 20,005 miles. The most recent test did not record any failures, though the tester noted both front brake discs were worn, pitted or scored, albeit not seriously weakened. This advisory, logged under item 1.1.14 (a) (ii), indicates surface degradation rather than an immediate structural risk, but it does mark a shift from the completely defect-free test recorded on 25 September 2024 at 19,605 miles. The overall trajectory suggests the car has been well cared for, with no recurring mechanical failures, though the latest advisory flags a developing wear item that warrants attention. Mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2020 vehicle. Between the September 2023 test at 16,367 miles and the September 2024 test at 19,605 miles, the car covered 3,238 miles over twelve months. That annual rate dipped further in the following year, with only 400 miles added between September 2024 and September 2025. Such minimal use can imply long periods of standing, which may contribute to the surface corrosion noted on the brake discs, as rotors can rust when a vehicle is parked for extended durations. The sparse mileage data makes it harder to judge long-term drivetrain wear, but the low annual accumulation generally favours reduced mechanical fatigue. The 2023 test on 6 September at 16,367 miles flagged cuts on both the nearside front and rear tyres, though neither was deep enough to expose the ply or cords. Tyre cuts are often consumable wear items and the absence of a repeat advisory in 2024 or 2025 suggests those tyres were likely replaced. A buyer should still inspect all four tyres in person for uneven tread, sidewall damage, and date codes, confirming whether the originals have been renewed. The front brake disc advisory from September 2025 is the most significant current concern. A hands-on inspection should measure disc thickness and check for lipping, scoring depth, and any vibration under braking. Given the low mileage and the car's age, a thorough underbody check for corrosion on suspension mounting points, subframes, and brake lines remains prudent, particularly if the vehicle has spent long periods stationary.
