2014 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · RO64 AAE

The current roadworthiness status of this Ford Fiesta is stable, confirmed by the clean pass recorded on 20 October 2025 at 103,099 miles. While the vehicle failed two tests in quick succession during the 2024 and 2025 cycles, the absence of recorded defects suggests these failures were likely administrative or related to minor issues rectified immediately by the owner. The lack of recurring advisories for structural corrosion or mechanical component failure indicates a vehicle that has been maintained to a functional standard, showing no evidence of a worsening trend in its recent history. The vehicle has covered 103,099 miles over its twelve-year lifespan, averaging approximately 8,592 miles per annum. This usage pattern is consistent and suggests regular, moderate operation rather than long periods of inactivity or extreme high-mileage fleet use. The mileage accumulation remained steady between the 2022 and 2023 tests, though the jump from 92,191 miles in August 2024 to 103,099 miles by October 2025 indicates a period of increased usage. This consistent progression typically points to a vehicle that has been kept in active service, which often prevents the mechanical stiction and rubber seal degradation associated with long-term storage. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the common wear items inherent to a Fiesta of this age and mileage. Although the MOT history is clean, check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components often reach the end of their service life at this mileage. Inspect the brake discs and pads for signs of scoring or uneven wear, as these are high-consumption parts that may not always trigger an advisory until they are near their limit. Verify the operation of the clutch and transmission, as the current mileage puts the vehicle in the window where these drivetrain components may require attention if they have not already been replaced.
