2018 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · PE18 GTY

The most recent MOT on 2026-04-15 shows the 2018 Ford Fiesta passed with two key issues: offside front tyre cracking and thin front brake pads. The front brake discs were worn but not excessively. These findings align with a recurring pattern of tyre and brake-related defects over the past four years. A consistent trend of tyre wear and degradation is evident. From 2022 to 2026, rear tyres repeatedly showed near-legal limit wear, cracking, or damage, while the 2026 MOT introduced front tyre cracking. This suggests ongoing tyre-related concerns, likely linked to age, storage conditions, or uneven wear from driving habits. Brake components also show gradual deterioration, with front brake pads now wearing thin—a new issue not previously recorded. The vehicle’s mileage of 35,306 miles over eight years equates to roughly 4,413 miles annually, which is low for its age. This could indicate lighter use or prolonged periods of inactivity, both of which may accelerate rubber component aging (e.g., tyres, seals) and lead to uneven wear. However, the absence of major mechanical failures in other areas suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained otherwise.
