2017 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · SC66 VTU

The vehicle displays a highly stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent inspection on 26 November 2025. The absence of any recorded defects or advisories across four of the last five annual tests indicates consistent maintenance standards and a lack of chronic mechanical failure. While the 21 November 2024 failure appears anomalous given the immediate pass eight days later, the record suggests the vehicle currently meets all statutory safety requirements without ongoing structural or mechanical degradation. With a total of 35,001 miles accumulated over nine years, the vehicle averages approximately 3,889 miles annually. This low-mileage usage pattern is consistent, showing no evidence of long-term storage or erratic heavy-duty cycles. The steady, incremental growth in mileage between the 2022 and 2025 tests suggests the car has been used for short, regular journeys rather than sitting idle for extended periods, which typically helps mitigate issues like seized calipers or battery degradation. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the effects of low-mileage usage, specifically checking for surface corrosion on brake discs and the condition of rubber components. Because the MOT record is exceptionally clean, it provides little evidence of specific recurring faults, meaning you must verify the integrity of the suspension bushes, track rod ends, and exhaust hangers manually. Confirm that the tyres show even wear patterns across the tread, as low-mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from sidewall cracking due to age rather than distance covered. Overall, the history points to a well-preserved example that has avoided the common pitfalls of neglected maintenance.
