Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The overall roadworthiness of this 2009 Ford Fiesta is currently stable, as the MOT record demonstrates a consistent trend of passing examinations without defects. The most recent test on 2024-11-07 at 135,834 miles was passed, confirming that the vehicle meets the current safety standards. This stability is maintained through a series of passing tests in 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021, with no record of failures or defects, indicating that the mechanical integrity remains sound. The mileage pattern suggests a relatively clean driving history, though there are notable gaps in the record that warrant attention. The vehicle has passed in 2024, 2023, and 2022, but failed in 2022 at 120,159 miles. This significant gap, combined with the fact that the vehicle has been tested in 2021, suggests that the owner may have had a period of inactivity. The absence of failures in the most recent years implies that the driver has maintained the car with regular, consistent upkeep, avoiding the accumulation of wear that typically leads to MOT failures. Given the consistent passing record and the lack of structural or consumable wear issues, a buyer should focus on inspecting the suspension and braking systems. The vehicle has passed the MOT on 2024, 2023, and 2022, with no defects recorded, meaning there are no signs of suspension bushings, coil springs, or binding calipers. Similarly, the brakes have passed the test, indicating no corrosion or binding condition. While the drivetrain components appear in good condition, the owner should be aware of the 2022 failure and the 2021 test, noting that these dates are older than the most recent ones. The primary risk is the potential for minor wear on suspension parts or brake discs, which could have been addressed but not recorded in the current MOT history.
