2010 Ford Fusion Style Plus Tdci 1.4L Diesel · BXZ 3524

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, demonstrating a consistent maintenance trend following an early failure. The most recent test on 21 February 2026 at 72,092 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects. This follows a period of three clean passes since early 2023, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the minimum safety standards without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation in the tested areas. The mileage profile is notably low for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year. Data shows a significant drop in usage between January 2024 and January 2025, where the car covered only 440 miles in a full year. Usage increased sharply again between January 2025 and February 2026, covering 6,194 miles. While low mileage generally suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber components, brake-related corrosion, and fluid contamination. Despite the clean recent records, a buyer must inspect the physical condition for issues common to low-mileage cars. Focus should be placed on the tyres for sidewalling or perished rubber due to age, and the brake system for pitting or seized calipers from inactivity. Given the vehicle's age, the suspension bushes and rubber mounts should be checked for cracking, and the structural integrity of the chassis must be verified for surface rust to ensure that the low mileage has not masked underlying environmental corrosion.
