2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · SN14 WSJ

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 30 July 2025 with 92,183 miles recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable over the last three years, as the car consistently achieved clean passes without recorded defects or advisories. The lack of advisory items in the 2025 test suggests that the vehicle is meeting the minimum safety and environmental standards without immediate mechanical intervention required. The mileage history reveals a significant shift in usage patterns during recent years. Between July 2022 and July 2024, the vehicle covered 62,030 miles, indicating a period of high intensity averaging over 30,000 miles per annum. However, the data between July 2024 and July 2025 shows a major discrepancy, as the mileage dropped from 128,802 miles in the failed test to 92,183 miles in the subsequent month's pass. This suggests a clerical error in the DVSA database or an odometer replacement, as the mileage returned to a more typical average of approximately 7,700 miles per year for the vehicle's age. Given the period of high mileage usage, a buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the suspension components and drivetrain bushings. High-mileage cycles often accelerate wear on rubber elements, coil springs, and shock absorbers, which may not always trigger an MOT failure until they reach a critical state. Focus should also be placed on brake calipers and thinning of discs, as the previous high mileage puts significant stress on the braking system. While the record is currently clean, the structural integrity of the chassis should be verified to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed during the years of heavy road use.
