2015 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · YJ15 PTO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 19 September 2025 at 68,908 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the initial failure on that same date was limited to minor electrical issues involving a nearside side repeater and an offside rear stop lamp. These defects were rectified immediately to achieve passing, suggesting the owner is responsive to test-related requirements rather than ignoring fundamental mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,264 miles per year. There is a gap of 16,249 miles between the September 2023 and September 2024 tests, and another 15,182 mile interval between September 2024 and September 2025. This steady progression indicates low annual usage, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components over time. A buyer should specifically inspect the offside front shock absorber, which was flagged for light misting of oil in September 2024 at 53,726 miles. While misting is not an immediate failure, it indicates a beginning seal failure that requires monitoring for more significant leaks. Additionally, the February 2023 record highlighted issues with tyre edge wear and perishing across multiple tyres. Given the age of the car and low mileage, the current tyres should be checked for deep sidewall cracking to ensure they have not become brittle despite potentially having sufficient tread depth.
