2012 FORD FIESTA1.2L Petrol

The 2026-02-03 MOT at 52,713 miles passed without any defects, confirming current roadworthiness and indicating a stable maintenance record. All previous tests at similar mileage also showed no recorded faults, suggesting the vehicle has been consistently maintained without major mechanical issues. The 2012 Fiesta, now 14 years old, has accumulated 52,713 miles, averaging 3,765 miles per year, which is low for its age. Mileage rose from 49,717 miles in the January 2024 test to 51,430 miles in the February 2025 test (1,713 miles in 13 months) and then to 52,713 miles in the February 2026 test (1,283 miles in 12 months), showing a steady but modest increase with no abrupt spikes or long periods of inactivity evident in the record. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, check the condition of the brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, and inspect the chassis and wheel arches for structural rust or corrosion, especially on the front sill and rear subframe. The exhaust system and structural integrity should also be verified, as low mileage does not preclude hidden deterioration. Although the low mileage suggests limited use, the absence of recorded defects does not guarantee that concealed corrosion or component fatigue has not developed, so a thorough visual and functional inspection is essential before purchase.
