2002 Ford Fiesta 1.3L Petrol · WA52 AJX

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 25 October 2024 at 91,082 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 24 year old car, averaging roughly 3,795 miles per year. The accumulation has remained consistent over the last five years, growing from 74,864 miles in October 2021 to 91,082 miles in October 2024. This steady increase indicates the car has been used regularly rather than left to stand for long periods, which typically reduces the risk of seized calipers or perished seals. The absence of any advisories or failures since October 2021 is unusual for a vehicle of this age. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on structural corrosion, particularly around the sills and suspension mounting points, as these are common failure points for early 2000s Fiestas that may not always be captured in a brief test. Check the condition of the rubber components, including suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, for age related cracking. Given the clean record, a manual check of the brake pedal feel and a visual inspection of the underbody for rust will confirm if the vehicle has been meticulously preserved or if the MOT history simply lacks detail.
