2021 Ford Fiesta ST-Line Edition T Mhev 1.0L Petrol · SA21 GWN

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no recorded defects in its most recent 2026 MOT at 25,661 miles. All three consecutive tests—2026, 2025, and 2024—showed passing results with no safety-critical issues. The absence of advisories or failures across this period suggests consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical concerns. The 2026 test, conducted just five months ago, confirms the car remains compliant with current safety standards. The mileage progression reveals a low annual average of approximately 5,132 miles, significantly below typical usage for a five-year-old vehicle. The 2024 test at 13,886 miles and 2025 test at 19,456 miles indicate gradual accumulation, with the 2026 test reaching 25,661 miles. This pattern may reflect infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on components like brake calipers, suspension bushes, and battery health. However, the lack of corrosion, structural issues, or drivetrain faults in the MOT records mitigates immediate concerns. A physical inspection should focus on signs of prolonged inactivity, such as dry-rotted tyres, seized suspension joints, or oxidised brake discs. The low mileage may also mask hidden wear in the exhaust system, where infrequent use can lead to condensation build-up and rust. Buyers should verify the battery’s condition and check for fluid leaks, as stagnant operation can affect seals and gaskets. While the MOT history shows no red flags, the vehicle’s usage pattern warrants careful evaluation of its mechanical state beyond recorded tests.
