2020 Ford Fiesta ST-Line X Edition Turbo 1.0L Petrol · YN20 MKC

The most recent MOT on 2026-01-26 recorded two tyres with surface cuts that did not penetrate to the ply or cords, meeting legal standards but indicating minor damage. This aligns with earlier reports of tyre damage in 2025-01-11, where front tyres showed slight damage, and in 2023-03-28, when a headlamp aim failure was corrected. No other defects were noted in the 2024 and 2023 MOTs, suggesting a generally clean record prior to 2025. The pattern of tyre damage appears consistent but non-critical. Cuts on the nearside front and rear tyres in 2026, and front tyres in 2025, indicate possible exposure to road hazards or uneven wear, though none required replacement. The headlamp issue in 2023 was a single failure, resolved upon retest, and no further lighting defects were recorded. Overall, the trend shows minor, recurring issues rather than escalating problems. The vehicle’s low mileage of 25,763 miles for a 6-year-old car suggests either light usage or extended periods of inactivity. While lower mileage typically reduces wear on components like brakes and suspension, it may also lead to issues such as fluid degradation or corrosion if the car has been stationary for long stretches. The MOT history does not confirm this, but buyers should remain cautious.
