2011 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · WN61 KPT

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in September 2025 at 102,292 miles passed despite an advisory for an offside front tyre worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear. This indicates that while the vehicle is currently legal for the road, the owner allows components to reach the point of failure or critical wear before addressing them. At 15 years old with 102,292 miles, this Ford Fiesta has averaged approximately 6,800 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage patterns for a small car of this age. The mileage accumulation is consistent, with intervals of roughly 6,000 to 7,000 miles between annual tests from 2022 to 2025. This regular use suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which often leads to the degradation of rubber seals and fluid components in older cars. A buyer should specifically inspect the front geometry and suspension components, as the edge wear on the offside front tyre noted in 2025 suggests potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes. The mechanical history also highlights a failure in September 2023 at 88,448 miles due to a major exhaust leak and a high lambda emissions reading. While these were repaired to achieve a subsequent pass, the buyer should verify the exhaust system for further corrosion and ensure the oxygen sensor is functioning correctly to prevent future emissions failures. Given the thin front brake pads recorded in 2023, a thorough check of the remaining pad life and disc condition is necessary to ensure the system has not been neglected.
