2018 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · YV18 ABF

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status based on a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test on 8 July 2024 at 8,091 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the car met all safety and emissions standards at its last inspection. This trend suggests a lack of significant mechanical failure or structural degradation over the last four years of recorded. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,011 miles per year. Between April 2021 at 3,211 miles and July 2024 at 8,091 miles, the car covered only 4,880 miles over a three-year period. While this low usage reduces the wear on the drivetrain and suspension, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to specific issues related to stagnation. The data remains clean, suggesting the vehicle was likely used for short trips or kept in reserve rather than long-distance commuting. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components associated with low-mileage vehicles. Specifically, check the brake discs for surface corrosion or seized calipers, as infrequent use can cause these parts to rust prematurely. The tyres should be inspected for age-related cracking rather than just tread depth, as rubber degrades over time regardless of mileage. Additionally, examine the suspension bushes and rubber components for signs of perishing which can occur on vehicles that sit for extended periods.
