2014 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · YL14 XJG

The vehicle's recent MOT history shows an improving trend in terms of compliance, moving from failures in early 2024 and early 2025 to a clean pass in the most recent test on 09 January 2026. While the 2025-01-31 failure suggests a specific issue required rectification, the lack of advisories or defects in the subsequent 2025-02-03 and 2026-01-09 tests indicates that the immediate mechanical concerns flagged during those periods were addressed. The vehicle has covered 147,404 miles over its 12-year lifespan, averaging approximately 12,284 miles per year. This represents a higher-than-average usage pattern for a 2014 Ford Fiesta. The mileage data provided is limited to the final recorded figure, making it difficult to track precise annual accumulation between specific test dates. However, the high cumulative mileage suggests increased wear on drivetrain components, suspension systems, and braking hardware compared to lower-mileage examples. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as high-mileage vehicles often exhibit degradation in these areas. Given the previous failures in February 2024 and January 2025, a close examination of the braking system, including brake discs and calipers for signs of binding or uneven wear, is necessary. It is also prudent to check the vehicle's underside for structural corrosion, particularly around the subframes and sills, which is common in older vehicles with this level of usage. buying_score: 62 risk_level: Medium.
