2006 Ford Fiesta Zetec 1.2L Petrol · PUI 1152

The vehicle presents a remarkably clean MOT history, with the most recent test on 17 November 2023 at 130,884 miles resulting in a pass with zero defects. This unbroken streak of clean passes dating back to 2018 suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance and diligent ownership. The lack of recurring advisories indicates that wear items such as suspension bushes, brake discs, and tyres have been replaced proactively rather than being left to deteriorate. The recorded mileage of 130,884 over twenty years averages approximately 6,500 miles per annum, which is consistent with typical light usage for a Ford Fiesta of this era. The data shows a steady accumulation of miles, with a notable increase between 2021 and 2022 where the vehicle covered nearly 15,000 miles in sixteen months. Since the last test occurred seven months ago, the vehicle has remained static or seen very little use, which warrants a check for potential seized brake calipers or battery degradation caused by standing idle. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on areas often overlooked during standard MOT testing, specifically the condition of the sills and floor pans for structural corrosion. While the test history is spotless, a vehicle of this age remains susceptible to hidden rot in the rear wheel arches and subframe mounting points. Check the cooling system for signs of leaks or degraded hoses, as these rubber components often perish regardless of how few miles the car covers. Ensure the clutch bite point remains consistent and listen for any bearing noise from the gearbox, as these are common high-mileage failure points that do not always manifest during a basic roadworthiness examination.
