2010 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · AO10 ACJ

The 2010 Ford Fiesta presents a stable and reassuring roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT, conducted on 12 June 2025 at 65,431 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. This clean sheet extends a consistent pattern. Looking back, the vehicle passed its June 2024 and June 2023 tests, also with no defects, following initial failures on those same dates that were promptly rectified. The maintenance trend is clearly stable, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in good order with no recurring or unresolved faults. The mileage pattern is notably low for a vehicle of this age. The recorded 65,431 miles equates to an average of roughly 4,090 miles per year. The annual increments between tests are modest, showing 1,941 miles between June 2023 and June 2024, and 2,223 miles between June 2024 and June 2025. This suggests light, regular use rather than long periods of standing, which is positive for preventing issues like brake seizure or fuel system problems associated with disuse. The record is clean and consistent, with no gaps or anomalies in the mileage progression. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection. The absence of recorded defects does not guarantee the absence of wear. A 16-year-old vehicle of this mileage will have experienced natural ageing of rubber and metal components. A close inspection of all suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for deterioration or corrosion is essential. The condition of the brake discs, pads, and calipers should be verified, as binding or uneven wear can occur between tests. The exhaust system and its mountings must be checked for corrosion and integrity. Finally, a detailed underbody inspection is critical to assess the structural integrity of the chassis, sills, and floor pan for any corrosion that may not yet constitute a test failure but could indicate future problems.
