2009 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · WF59 AAZ

The 2009 Ford Fiesta demonstrates consistent roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its last five MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-09-23 assessment at 88,763 miles. All prior tests from 2021 to 2024 also passed without issues, indicating a stable maintenance trend. No structural corrosion, brake system faults, or suspension failures were flagged, suggesting the vehicle has been well-maintained. The absence of advisories or failures over this period implies the previous owner prioritized regular servicing and addressed minor wear proactively. The vehicle’s mileage of 88,763 miles over 17 years equates to approximately 5,221 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage could reflect infrequent driving or prolonged periods of inactivity, which may affect components like the battery, fluids, and rubber seals. Notably, the 2022-10-10 test at 72,185 miles showed a 9,341-mile gap to the 2023-09-20 test, raising questions about whether the vehicle was driven consistently or stored. The subsequent 2024-09-17 test at 85,186 miles recorded a 3,660-mile increase, suggesting a possible return to regular use. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for signs of inactivity-related issues, such as hardened suspension bushes, corroded exhaust systems, or degraded brake hoses, which may not appear in MOT records. Despite the clean MOT history, the low mileage and irregular usage patterns warrant a thorough check of the drivetrain, steering components, and body rust, particularly around wheel arches and underbody panels. The absence of recorded faults is positive, but the vehicle’s age and mileage suggest a cautious approach to mechanical evaluation.
