2020 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · RE20 BVV

The 2020 Ford Fiesta presents a clean and stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT, conducted on 14 May 2026 at 40,764 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. This marks four consecutive passes with no advisories or failures across the entire documented history, indicating consistent mechanical upkeep and no emerging faults. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a six-year-old vehicle. Between the May 2023 test at 12,299 miles and the May 2026 test at 40,764 miles, the car covered 28,465 miles over three years, averaging roughly 9,488 miles annually in that window. Earlier years show lower annualisation, around 4,555 miles per year between 2023 and 2024, suggesting a shift to heavier use more recently. The record is complete with no gaps, and the odometer progression is logical with no anomalies. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still conduct a thorough in-person inspection. The 2020 Fiesta platform is known for rear suspension bush wear and front lower arm bush degradation as mileage climbs, particularly on vehicles subjected to urban driving. Brake disc thickness and pad condition should be verified given the increased recent mileage. Tyre condition and age deserve attention too, as rubber deteriorates independently of tread depth. Underneath, check for corrosion on the subframe, suspension mounting points, and around the rear beam, as salt exposure can attack these areas well before it triggers an MOT failure. A short test drive over rough surfaces will reveal any knocking from drop links or worn anti-roll bar links that may not yet meet the threshold for an advisory but could indicate impending wear.
