2020 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · SH20 TYF

The vehicle remains roadworthy with a valid MOT that will not expire until 2026‑08‑26. The most recent test, carried out on 2025‑08‑26 at 23,195 miles, recorded several defects that were absent in the clean 2023 and 2024 examinations. The appearance of damaged rear tyres, worn front brake discs and a light oil mist on the rear shock absorbers marks a clear worsening trend in the car’s mechanical condition. Mileage progression shows a low‑usage pattern for a six‑year‑old Fiesta. Between 2023‑09‑01 and 2025‑08‑26 the odometer advanced from 17,174 to 23,195 miles, averaging roughly 3,866 miles per year. Test intervals have been kept close to the annual standard, with the gap from 2023‑09‑01 to 2024‑08‑26 at about 11 months and the subsequent year at exactly 12 months, indicating regular MOT compliance without any rapid mileage spikes. A buyer should inspect the rear tyres for sidewall cracking, the front brake discs for pitting or scoring, and the rear shock absorbers for oil leakage around the pistons. Suspension bushes and mounting points should be examined for corrosion or wear, as should the under‑body for rust. Brake pads and callipers need a visual check for uneven wear, and the steering column and suspension towers should be inspected for any signs of corrosion or looseness. These checks will confirm whether the identified faults have been addressed or represent a broader deterioration.
