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

The 2017 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 29 April 2025 at 53,610 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing a clean sequence of examinations across the available history. Annual mileage sits low for a nine-year-old car at roughly 5,957 miles per year. The record shows 24,038 miles in May 2022, rising to 31,794 by April 2023, then 43,063 at the May 2024 test, and 53,610 by April 2025. That equates to steady yearly use near 9,000 to 10,000 miles with no sudden jumps or dormant gaps. The DVSA data is sparse on faults: a failed entry on 3 May 2024 at 43,063 miles carries no listed defect, with the same-day pass suggesting an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical issue. No advisories appear for suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions at any stage. The absence of flagged wear across five tests implies previous owners kept basic consumables and structural items within limits. A clean sheet does not confirm component condition, only that testers found nothing reportable on the day. A buyer should still verify in person what paper records cannot show. Inspect brake calipers for binding after standing, check underside and sills for structural rust given the car's age, and confirm tyre sidewall condition and tread depth. Low mileage with long idle periods can hide perished rubber and seized linkages that a pass certificate will not reveal.
