2018 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · VO68 ACX

The 2018 Ford Fiesta exhibits a stable roadworthiness trend, with no defects recorded in its most recent 2025-09-03 MOT at 31,909 miles. All subsequent tests from 2022 to 2025 show consistent passes, including the 2024-08-27 and 2023-09-13 MOTs at 26,348 and 22,226 miles respectively. The sole 2022-08-26 failure at 17,236 miles did not list any defects, suggesting a potential procedural error or minor non-critical issue resolved before subsequent tests. No recurring mechanical or structural faults are evident in the record, indicating effective maintenance. The vehicle’s mileage of 31,909 miles over eight years equates to approximately 3,989 miles annually, significantly below average for its age. This low usage aligns with MOT intervals spaced roughly 12 months apart, with mileage increments of ~5,000 miles per year. Notable gaps include the 2022-08-26 failure and subsequent pass in 2023, which may reflect a period of inactivity or minimal driving. The absence of defects in all tests since 2023 suggests no emerging issues, though the low mileage could imply prolonged storage, potentially affecting components like tyres, fluids, or electrical systems. A buyer should inspect the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs, as low mileage may mask age-related degradation. Brake components, including discs and calipers, should be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, particularly if the vehicle was stored for extended periods. Structural integrity remains unmentioned in the record, but the lack of rust or corrosion advisories in MOTs up to 2025 supports a clean bill of health. Regular servicing and attention to fluid levels would be prudent to address potential storage-related issues.
