Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2017 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 September 2025 at 68,897 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the vehicle carries a clean advisory history across all available entries. The upkeep pattern shows no worsening faults and no recurring mechanical concerns across the examined period. Recorded mileage sits at a typical level for a nine-year-old car, averaging roughly 7,655 miles per year. The DVSA data shows 26,853 miles at the 16 February 2022 test, rising to 33,723 miles by 6 February 2023, then jumping to 49,305 miles at the 13 September 2024 examination. A further 19,592 miles accrued by September 2025. The sparse but clean record points to light early use followed by heavier annual driving after 2023, with no MOT gaps that would suggest prolonged standing or skipped testing. A failed test on 13 September 2024 at 49,305 miles shows no defects logged, indicating an administrative or presentational failure rather than a mechanical fault, with the same-day pass confirming the car was then compliant. No advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions appear in any entry, so the history gives no signal of structural or consumable wear needing urgent attention. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of common Fiesta wear points not captured by a pass with no defects: front coil springs, rear suspension bushes, and brake caliper operation. Verify the bodywork for localised corrosion and confirm tyre tread depth and wiper condition, as these consumables fall outside the recorded MOT scope despite the clean trail.
