2017 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · WN17 AEF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a period of inconsistent oversight. The most recent MOT test in March 2023 at 22,965 miles resulted in a pass following a failure two days prior for a missing brake hydraulic reservoir cap and a deteriorated rear registration plate. While these are minor cosmetic and component defects rather than mechanical failures, the overall trend remains stable as there are no recurring structural issues or escalating mechanical faults recorded over the last three years. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,552 miles per year. The data shows consistent, low-impact usage moving from 15,879 miles in March 2020 to 22,965 miles in March 2023. This low mileage typically suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, but it increases the risk of degradation in rubber-based parts and fluid systems if the car has sat for long periods. Brake brakes are particularly prone to seizing when stationary for extended durations. A buyer should specifically inspect the physical condition of the brake system and tyres. The previously missing hydraulic reservoir cap in 2023 suggests a potential for fluid contamination or leaks, so a thorough check of the master cylinder and calipers is necessary. Given the nearside rear nail in the tyre recorded in 2022, the current set of tyres should be evaluated for sidewall cracking or dry rot, which often affects low-mileage vehicles. Because the car travels infrequently, checking for corrosion on the brake discs and suspension bushes is just as important as checking for tread depth.
