2008 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · SV08 NMY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the most recent recorded data. The last documented MOT test occurred in July 2022 at 119,209 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the car met all minimum standards at that time. While the vehicle has not undergone a test in nearly four years, the lack of defects in the final inspection suggests no history of major mechanical or structural failure during its later operational years. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use, older vehicle, averaging approximately 6,600 miles per annum. The data shows a significant gap between September 2019 and July 2021, where the car covered only 10 miles over nearly two years. Following this period, the mileage increased by 5,216 miles between July 2021 and July 2022. This low annual mileage often reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components but increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber components, seals, and fluid chemistry during long periods of inactivity. A buyer must prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the structural integrity and underbody components, as the vehicle is now eighteen years old. The MOT history does not list specific mechanical failures, but the age of the Fiesta makes the presence of corrosion on the sills, floor pans, and exhaust system likely. Check for perished suspension bushes and seized brake calipers, which often degrade over time regardless of low mileage. Since the last official record is from mid-2022, a current mechanical check is essential to verify that no significant rust or fluid leaks have developed in the intervening four years.
