2010 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · YB10 AKY

The 2010 Ford Fiesta demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its last three MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-09-09 assessment at 87,711 miles. The vehicle passed all tests from 2022 to 2025, with no recurring mechanical issues flagged. A single failed test in 2022-09-13 at 77,491 miles was recorded but without specific defects, suggesting a potential procedural error or minor unresolved item. The absence of critical faults in subsequent tests indicates consistent maintenance, though the low mileage of 5,482 annual miles raises questions about long-term component wear. The mileage progression shows gradual accumulation, with 77,491 miles in 2022 rising to 87,711 by 2025, reflecting an average of 3,400–4,500 miles annually. This pattern aligns with the vehicle’s age but lacks significant gaps or rapid increases that might indicate neglect. The 2022-09-13 failure at 77,491 miles, coinciding with the same mileage as the 2022-09-14 test, suggests possible administrative inconsistency. However, the clean record from 2023 onward implies that any prior issues were resolved. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for aged bushes or coil springs, as low mileage can mask wear from inactivity. Brake components, including discs and calipers, warrant scrutiny for corrosion or binding, particularly if the car was stored. The exhaust system and underbody should be checked for rust, as prolonged inactivity may accelerate degradation. While the MOT history shows no immediate risks, physical inspection remains crucial to verify the vehicle’s structural and mechanical integrity beyond recorded data.
