2011 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · SC11 ABN

The 2025‑09‑17 MOT at 89,809 miles resulted in a pass, but the test record lists several advisories: offside front service brake binding, rear inner sill and suspension mounting surface corrosion, nearside front tyre tread low, and rear coil springs corroded. These recurring issues, together with the persistent brake binding noted in 2024 and 2025, indicate that the vehicle’s maintenance has not progressed to a fully resolved condition; the trend remains one of persistent minor defects rather than improvement. Mileage has risen steadily from 56,185 miles in September 2017 to 89,809 miles in September 2025, averaging roughly 5,987 miles per year, which is low for a 15‑year‑old Fiesta. The incremental increases are modest, with no abrupt jumps; the largest yearly rise occurs between 2020 (65,532 miles) and 2021 (70,617 miles), a gain of 5,085 miles, while earlier periods show smaller increments. The consistent yearly progression suggests regular use rather than long periods of standing, and the lack of major mileage spikes supports the view that the vehicle has been driven sensibly. A buyer should therefore inspect the rear suspension mounting areas and coil springs for active corrosion, verify that the offside front brake caliper moves freely and that the binding reported in the latest test has been remedied, and measure the nearside front tyre tread depth to confirm it meets the legal minimum. Particular attention should be given to the structural integrity of the sills, the condition of the brake discs for pitting or weakening, any play in the anti‑roll bar linkages, and the functionality of all lamps, especially the offside headlamp and stop lamp, to ensure that previous lighting faults have been corrected.
