2009 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · WK09 VNO

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status following a clean pass in its most recent test on 14 July 2025. At 91,919 miles, the tester recorded no defects, indicating an improvement in maintenance trend compared to previous years where the car required remedial work to achieve compliance. The transition from failures to a clean record suggests the current owner addressed identified mechanical issues and is now maintaining the vehicle to a functional standard. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 91,919 miles represents a low average of approximately 5,400 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage, with 11,903 miles driven between July 2023 and July 2024, and another 12,909 miles covered in the subsequent year since. While this low mileage generally suggests the engine and drivetrain have faced less stress, long periods of sitting can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid seals which are not always captured by the MOT test. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the suspension and braking system, as the failures in July 2023 and 2024 indicate that these areas have previously required attention. Given the age of the Fiesta, it is vital to check for perished suspension bushes or worn coil springs which are common points of failure on this model regardless of mileage. The inspector should also look for structural corrosion on the sills and rear wheel arches, as low-mileage cars stored in damp environments often suffer from hidden rust that high-use vehicles might avoid.
