2015 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · X26 CCM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a period of mechanical instability between 2021 and 2022. The most recent test on 22 December 2023 at 61,755 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that previous mechanical issues have been addressed. This follows a clean pass in August 2023 at 60,074 miles, suggesting the car has maintained a consistent standard of upkeep over the last eighteen months. The mileage pattern indicates low annual usage, averaging approximately 5,600 miles per year over its eleven-year lifespan. The data shows a significant jump in mileage between September 2020 at 33,254 miles and August 2021 at 45,490 miles, representing over 12,000 miles in less than a year. Since that period, the usage has slowed considerably, with only about 16,000 miles covered between August 2021 and December 2023. This low-mileage profile often suggests lighter mechanical strain on the drivetrain, though it can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and tyre management. The August 2022 failure at 54,267 miles highlighted fractured coil springs on both the nearside and offside rear, alongside uneven tyre wear. While these were resolved for the subsequent tests, the recurring mention of tyres worn to the legal limit or on edges across the 2021 and 2022 tests suggests a historical pattern of delayed consumable replacement or potential alignment issues. The 2021 test also flagged pitted and scored front brake discs. Although the vehicle has passed recent tests without further brake or suspension advisories, a manual check of the brake pad thickness and the condition of the suspension bushes is advisable. Ensuring the recent replacement of the coil springs has not left any secondary issues in the shock absorbers or mounting points would be a prudent step before purchase.
