2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · PK14 NJV

The Ford Fiesta presents a clean roadworthiness status as of the most recent test on 3 April 2026 at 51,962 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. The owner cleared the 2026 test on the same day as a failed attempt that listed no defects, a pattern repeated on 15 March 2025 at 49,244 miles, indicating administrative re-tests rather than rectified faults. Recorded mileage sits at 51,962 against a 2014 build, averaging roughly 4,330 miles per year. The car covered just 2,718 miles between the March 2024 test at 45,221 miles and the March 2025 test, then a further 2,718 miles to April 2026. This low annual use suggests extended standing periods, which commonly accelerate rubber degradation in suspension bushes and permit corrosion to take hold on structural members and brake discs without visible fault at test. The DVSA record shows no recurring suspension, braking, or structural defects across the three years of data. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of coil springs, subframe mounts, and brake calipers for seizing, as low-mileage cars left idle often hide binding calipers and surface rust not caught in a pass result. Exhaust emissions and tyre sidewall condition warrant a hands-on check given the age of the vehicle. Given the sparse and clean history, previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance without neglect signals. The duplicated fail-pass entries on single dates imply clerical correction rather than mechanical concern, but the absence of advisories should not replace a pre-purchase underside review for structural integrity.
