2006 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · VO56 VUN

The 2025-07-11 MOT at 121,754 miles passed without defect, confirming the Fiesta’s current roadworthiness and indicating a stable maintenance trend. The mileage climbs about 6,000 miles annually, a pace typical for a vehicle of this age. Gaps between tests are brief, with only an 11‑day interval between the August 2022 failure and its subsequent pass, and no prolonged periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, check the rear brake calipers for binding, examine the brake discs for scoring, and look for structural corrosion around the subframe and wheel arches. The exhaust system and mounting points also merit a close look for rust or fatigue. While the MOT record shows no recurring mechanical faults, the vehicle’s age and mileage mean consumables such as tyres, wiper blades and exhaust components may be nearing the end of their service life, so a physical inspection is advisable before purchase.
