AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2009 Ford Fiesta passed its most recent MOT on 24 April 2025 at 144,605 miles with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend appears stable with no advisories or faults logged across the available history. The vehicle shows a clean test profile following two immediate pass-after-fail outcomes in consecutive years, which suggests administrative or presentation issues rather than unresolved mechanical defects. Recorded mileage rose from 126,508 on 2 May 2023 to 136,560 on 8 May 2024, then to 144,605 by 23 April 2025, equating to roughly 8,500 miles per year and matching typical use for a 17-year-old car. The DVSA entries are sparse, with only three test years present and no minor or major advisories filed at any stage, so the data gives limited insight into consumable wear or hidden corrosion. The April 2024 and April 2025 failures at 136,560 and 144,605 miles respectively listed no defects, meaning the car was retested and passed within one day on both occasions. This pattern implies the earlier failures were likely due to documentation, lighting, or plate anomalies rather than structural or brake faults, though no root cause is captured in the record. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age and 144,605 miles. The absence of advisories across five tests is unusual for a Ford of this era and may reflect lenient testing rather than genuine condition, so independent verification of structural integrity and exhaust emissions is warranted before purchase.
