2011 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · WR61 AOC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following its most recent inspection. The MOT test conducted on 24 July 2025 at 78,028 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, despite an initial failure on the same day. This suggests a specific mechanical issue was identified and rectified immediately to meet the retest requirements. Since the May 2024 pass, the car has maintained a clean record, indicating that primary structural and safety components are currently meeting minimum regulatory standards. At 15 years old, the recorded mileage of 78,028 miles is notably low, averaging approximately 5,200 miles per annum. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with a gap of 9,389 miles covered between April 2023 and May 2024, and another 10,254 miles between 2024 and July 2025. This low rate of travel typically reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine internals, though it often increases the risk of accelerated aging in rubber-based components and fluid degradation if the vehicle sits for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the lower chassis and suspension assembly to account for age-related degradation. Low-mileage vehicles often suffer from seized brake calipers, perished suspension bushes, and corroded springs that do not manifest through high mileage alone. Given the retest failures in 2023 and 2025, it is vital to verify that the specific faults causing those failures were fully addressed and are not merely symptoms of a wider mechanical trend. Inspect the brake discs for surface pitting and the exhaust system for structural rust thinning, as these are the most common points of failure on an older, low-use Ford Fiesta.
