2021 Ford Fiesta ST-Line Edition T Mhev 1.0L Petrol · SL21 NYK

The vehicle presents a generally stable maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT conducted on 20 April 2026 at 49,686 miles resulting in a pass. The sole advisory at that test was kerbing damage to the nearside front tyre sidewall, a minor cosmetic and structural concern rather than a serious mechanical risk. The record shows a clear pattern of resolving issues rather than worsening defects. In April 2025, the car failed on four separate items including worn brake discs, tyre wear, and headlamp aim, yet the very same day a retest passed, indicating the previous owner addressed those specific faults promptly. A minor exhaust leak flagged in April 2024 at 27,942 miles also appears to have been rectified, as no subsequent test mentions exhaust emissions or gas leaks. The mileage accumulation is consistent and unremarkable for a five-year-old vehicle. Between April 2024 and April 2025, the odometer advanced from 27,942 to 40,155 miles, a jump of 12,213 miles in twelve months. That rate then slowed considerably, with only 9,531 miles added between April 2025 and April 2026. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden drops in recorded mileage, and the overall annual average of roughly 9,937 miles sits comfortably within normal UK usage. The MOT record itself is sparse, with only four tests logged across five years, which is typical for a car that has never failed a test outside the single 2025 event. A buyer inspecting this Fiesta in person should focus on the front brake discs and tyres, as both have appeared on advisories in consecutive years. The 2025 test specifically noted pitted and scored front discs, and while the car passed in 2026 without that advisory, a physical inspection will confirm whether the discs were replaced or merely within tolerance at the last test. The nearside front tyre sidewall damage from the 2026 test warrants close examination, as a chunked outer sidewall can compromise structural integrity and may require replacement rather than repair. The headlamp aim, flagged as too low in 2025, should be verified on a flat surface to ensure correct beam alignment. Finally, the front flexi pipe repair from 2024 should be visually checked for any signs of fresh corrosion or exhaust staining, confirming the repair has held.
