2017 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · UP02 AMY

The vehicle currently holds a valid roadworthiness status following a successful MOT test on 22 July 2025 at 80,259 miles. While the most recent result shows no defects, the maintenance trend indicates a period of instability leading up to this. The history reveals multiple failures in both 2024 and 2025, suggesting that mechanical issues were only addressed when they reached the point of a legal failure rather than being managed through a preventative service schedule. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per annum. A gap of 5,998 miles exists between the July 2024 test at 74,261 miles and the July 2025 test at 80,259 miles. This steady accumulation suggests the car is used regularly, which generally prevents internal corrosion of brake lines and seals, though it also places standard age-related wear on rubber components and suspension bushings. Because the provided record does not list specific defect codes for the failures, a buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of components most likely to fail on a Fiesta. Focus attention on the suspension assembly for perished ball joints or worn coil springs, and check the braking system for binding calipers or uneven pad wear. Given the repeated failures prior to passing, verifying the structural integrity of the subframe and exhaust for corrosion is essential to ensure the previous issues were not merely superficial.
