2015 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · WD15 PCU

The vehicle presents a stable and improving maintenance trend based on the official DVSA record. The most recent examination on 22 July 2025 at 18,422 miles resulted in a clean pass with zero defects recorded, leaving the certificate valid for roughly one more month. This follows a consistent pattern of mechanical integrity, as the tester logged no issues during the July 2024 and July 2023 inspections either. The solitary advisory regarding perishing rear tyres in July 2022 appears to have been an isolated instance of ageing rubber rather than systemic neglect, given the subsequent clean history. Usage remains exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,675 miles annually. The odometer progression shows consistent, light operation, recording increments of roughly 1,200 to 2,100 miles per year between the July 2021 and July 2025 tests. Such limited mileage suggests the car has experienced minimal mechanical stress, though extended periods of inactivity can cause issues with fluids, rubber seals, and braking components due to lack of use. The record reflects a vehicle likely used for short, infrequent journeys rather than high-mileage commuting. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to degradation from low usage or age. Although the 2022 MOT flagged cracking on both rear tyres, the current rubber will likely need replacement soon regardless of tread depth due to age. Verify that brake callipers are free-moving and discs are not heavily corroded, as infrequent driving can lead to binding mechanisms or surface rust. A thorough check of the suspension bushes and steering joints is also prudent to ensure no perishing has occurred during the long periods of standing.
