2019 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · SJ19 MJN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a clean pass in the June 2025 test at 22,692 miles. This most recent result indicates that previous defects were addressed, moving the vehicle away from the failure recorded in June 2024. The maintenance trend shows a pattern of resolving consumable issues, specifically regarding tyres and braking components, which had previously flagged multiple advisories and a failure. The mileage profile indicates very light usage, averaging approximately 3,242 miles per year over its seven-year lifespan. The data shows consistent, low-interval increases between tests, moving from 12,337 miles in July 2022 to 22,692 miles by June 2025. While low mileage generally reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain, the records suggest the car may spend significant periods stationary, which often contributes to the specific types of degradation observed in the history. The MOT history highlights a recurring issue with tyre condition. Between July 2022 and June 2024, the tester repeatedly flagged sidewall damage, cracking, and perishing on multiple tyres. This pattern, combined with the low annual mileage, suggests the rubber is ageing and degrading due to lack of use rather than tread wear. A buyer should inspect all four tyres for sidewall cracking or flat spots, as the low mileage can mask age-related deterioration. Braking components also require a physical inspection. The June 2024 test recorded a failure due to insufficient rear brake lever travel and noted that both rear brake discs were pitted or scored. Although the June 2025 test passed without these advisories, the history of surface corrosion and pitting on the discs suggests the vehicle is prone to brake oxidation during periods of inactivity. Check the rear brake pads, discs, and calipers for any signs of seizing or uneven wear.
