2012 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Diesel · EK62 ACY

The vehicle demonstrates a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness trend. The most recent MOT on 19 November 2025 at 96,433 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the car. It has covered approximately 6,888 miles per year over its fourteen-year lifespan. The distance between the September 2022 test at 88,110 miles and the November 2025 test at 96,433 miles shows a steady usage rate of roughly 3,000 miles per year over the last three years. This suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often leads to seized calipers or perished rubber components. The MOT history is unusually clean for a 2012 model, with no advisories recorded since September 2022. There are no recurring mentions of suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc corrosion. The absence of any flagged defects over the last four years indicates a high standard of preventative maintenance or a very light duty cycle. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the underbody for structural corrosion, as MOT testers often overlook surface rust that has not yet compromised structural integrity. Check the condition of the tyres and brake pads manually, as these consumables may be nearing the end of their life despite not yet triggering an MOT advisory. Verify the service history to ensure the oil and filters have been changed in line with the mileage, as the MOT record only confirms roadworthiness rather than mechanical health.
