2015 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · ST09 STM

A consistent record of clean MOT passes defines this vehicle, demonstrating a high level of sustained roadworthiness with no recorded defects or advisories over several years. This stable mechanical trend is confirmed by the most recent pass on 2 May 2025, which followed a similarly clear result in 2024. Even the brief failure recorded on 21 April 2023 was rectified within twenty-four hours, leaving the overall history devoid of chronic issues or recurring component failures. The recorded mileage of 80,917 miles is typical for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,356 miles per annum. This steady rate of accumulation suggests a balanced usage profile, avoiding the risks associated with excessive long-distance wear on the drivetrain or the degradation often found in vehicles that have spent extended periods stationary. Mechanically, this indicates that consumables and suspension components have been subjected to standard operational stress. Given the complete absence of advisories regarding corrosion or wear, the vehicle presents as mechanically sound on paper. During a physical inspection, focus on verifying that the underbody and structural sills remain free from surface rust, as these are common areas of concern for this model that would typically be flagged if significant. Ensure the steering is precise and the suspension is tight, listening for any knocks or rattles over uneven surfaces that might have developed since the last inspection. The braking system and exhaust emissions have consistently met requirements without any noted degradation. On the test drive, check for a firm brake pedal and a straight-line stop to confirm the absence of binding calipers or uneven pad wear. While the MOT history is exemplary, a manual check of the oil and coolant levels will confirm that the engine remains free from the leaks or misting that often precede an official advisory.
