2017 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · WN17 AXU

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2026-01-12 at 79,244 miles recording a pass and no defects. Prior tests from 2025-01-28 (73,295 miles) and 2024-03-27 (70,521 miles) also passed without issues. A failed test on 2024-03-22 at 70,466 miles is noted, though no defects were recorded, suggesting a potential administrative or procedural anomaly. The absence of recurring mechanical failures in the last three years indicates consistent maintenance, with no significant deterioration in critical systems. The mileage progression aligns with an average of 8,805 miles annually, reflecting typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle. A gap between the 2023-03-15 test (63,280 miles) and 2024-03-22 test (70,466 miles) shows a 7,186-mile increase over 12 months, consistent with normal driving patterns. No abrupt spikes or extended periods of inactivity are evident, though the 2024-03-22 failure remains unexplained. The MOT history lacks detailed defect reports, which may indicate minimal mechanical stress or a lack of critical issues requiring repair. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, should be checked for wear, as these are common failure points in older models. While the MOT records show no structural corrosion or emission issues, a physical assessment is recommended to confirm the absence of hidden damage, such as exhaust system leaks or body panel rust, which may not trigger MOT failures. The vehicle’s maintenance history suggests reliable operation, but a pre-purchase inspection is advised to verify its current condition.
