2018 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · V14 EDW

The 2018 Ford Fiesta presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 December 2025 at 50,674 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of passes since at least December 2021. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the official record, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work at any documented examination. Annual mileage has remained low for an eight-year-old car. The tester logged 34,315 miles on 16 December 2021, rising to 39,032 by 4 January 2023, 43,357 on 5 December 2023, 47,258 on 5 December 2024, and 50,674 on 23 December 2025. That equates to roughly 3,500 to 4,400 miles per year across the recorded period, well below the typical 6,300-mile average. The sparse but consistent history shows no gaps exceeding thirteen months and no sudden accumulation of distance that would suggest heavy drivetrain or suspension loading. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection despite the fault-free MOT trail. The absence of advisories means the tester noted no worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, or failing brake components at each examination, yet MOTs do not assess clutch wear, gearbox condition, or underbody rust hidden behind panels. The low usage pattern raises the possibility of prolonged standing periods, which can degrade tyres, seizing calipers, and accelerate rubber perishing. Given the clean record, the previous owner appears to have maintained basic statutory compliance with no deferred repairs. The buyer should verify service history, check for intermittent electrical faults not caught by MOT, and confirm the actual condition of brake discs and exhaust emissions under load before purchase.
