2008 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · SP58 NAA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT data. The most recent test conducted on 20 July 2023 at 86,562 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a failure just one day prior. This pattern suggests that the previous owner was proactive in rectifying identified issues immediately to ensure a pass. Since the July 2023 test, the vehicle has maintained a clean record without further recorded advisories or mechanical failures. The mileage profile is notably low for an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,800 miles per year. Between June 2021 at 78,333 miles and July 2023 at 86,562 miles, the car covered only 8,229 miles over two years. This low usage often indicates less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, however, long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components, such as suspension bushes, hoses, and perished tyres, which are not always reflected in mileage figures alone. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and floor pans, as older Ford Fiestas prone to corrosion in these areas. While the MOT history is clean, the age of the vehicle necessitates a close look for rust around the sills and suspension mounting points. Given the low mileage, also inspect the brake discs for pitting or surface rust, as infrequently used vehicles often suffer from seized calipers or uneven that affect stopping performance.
