2015 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · WV15 FUG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs after several years of clean inspections. While the car maintained a perfect record between 2022 and 2025, the most recent test in March 2026 at 103,957 miles identified multiple defects. The appearance of corroded coil springs and perished tyres indicates that components are now reaching the end of their service life. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical UK usage for an older Fiesta, averaging approximately 9,450 miles per year. Between March 2022 at 69,334 miles and March 2026 at 103,957 miles, the vehicle covered over 34,000 miles, showing a steady usage profile. There are no significant gaps in the testing history, suggesting the vehicle has been used regularly rather than left stationary for long periods, which likely contributed to the current degradation of rubber and metal components. A buyer must perform a thorough physical inspection of the rear suspension to assess the extent of the corrosion on the coil springs flagged in the 2026 test. Corrosion on these components can lead to structural failure if not addressed promptly. The buyer should also check all four tyres for sidewall cracking or dry rot, as the tester noted perishing across the set, which compromises safety regardless of remaining tread depth. Given the age and mileage of the vehicle, a close look at the underbody for structural rust is also advisable to ensure the corrosion on the springs is not indicative of wider environmental damage.
