2015 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · RO15 TNN

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in October 2025 at 70,297 miles identified a new issue with oil misting on the nearside front shock absorber, marking the start of a component failure trend. While the car passed, the recurring mention of worn and pitted brake discs across multiple years suggests the owner tends to address braking components only when they approach the failure threshold. At 11 years old with 70,297 miles, the Fiesta averages approximately 6,400 miles per year, which aligns with typical national averages for a smaller city car. The mileage accumulation is steady, with roughly 11,600 miles covered between October 2023 and October 2024, and another 13,724 miles between October 2024 and October 2025. This consistent usage reduces the likelihood of age-related rubber degradation, which was evidenced by the perishing tyres noted in 2022. A buyer must personally inspect the front suspension components to determine if the misting on the nearside shock absorber has progressed to a significant leak requiring immediate replacement. The history of inner-edge tyre wear noted in 2023 points to a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that should be verified to prevent premature new tyre failure. Furthermore, because the brake discs were flagged as worn or pitted in both 2024 and 2025, a physical check of the rotor thickness and condition of the pads is necessary to ensure they are not nearing the end of their functional life.
