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

The 2011 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 25 July 2025 at 150,307 miles which recorded no defects. Prior to that, the July 2024 and July 2023 annual tests also passed with clean sheets. The only blemishes are two failed tests on 26 July 2024 at 143,712 miles and 21 July 2023 at 135,693 miles, both showing no recorded defects, indicating administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical faults. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical 10,020 miles per year for a 15-year-old vehicle. The record shows 135,693 miles in July 2023, 143,714 by July 2024, and 150,307 by July 2025, a steady 7,000 to 8,000 miles annually. No gaps or sudden accumulation appear. The sparse history with only pass and no-defect fail entries gives limited insight into wear cycles, though the absence of advisories across four years suggests either light mechanical wear or minimal tester scrutiny. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the high 150,307-mile count. The clean MOT record does not exempt the car from consumable fatigue at this age. Structural corrosion around sills and subframes warrants close visual checks despite no advisories being logged. The repeated no-defect failures hint the previous owner may have mishandled test bookings rather than neglected upkeep. Verify the V5C and service stamps to confirm routine oil, timing belt, and clutch intervention, as the MOT alone cannot evidence such maintenance on a high-mileage Fiesta.
