2010 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · YD10 ADO

This 2010 Ford Fiesta presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 16 September 2024 at 122,950 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean certificates over the last few years, suggesting the vehicle is currently maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements. The mileage is typical for a sixteen year old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,684 miles per year. The distance covered between the October 2022 test at 115,280 miles and the September 2024 test at 122,950 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 3,800 miles per annum over that period. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest undisclosed heavy commercial use or prolonged periods of standing. The MOT record is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age, showing no advisories for common Fiesta issues such as suspension bush wear, coil spring fractures, or brake disc corrosion. While the record shows failures in October 2022 and October 2023, these were resolved on the same day, which is common for minor consumable items. The lack of documented defects suggests a proactive approach to maintenance by the previous owner. A physical inspection should still focus on areas the MOT tester may overlook or that do not trigger a failure. Check for structural corrosion on the sills and rear axle, as these are known weak points for this model. Verify the condition of the cambelt and water pump, as these service items are not part of the MOT test but are critical for engine longevity at 122,950 miles.
