2010 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · YD10 ADV

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-07-15 at 102,763 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. However, a prior failure on 2025-07-07 at 102,710 miles—just eight days earlier—suggests potential unresolved issues despite the subsequent pass. The 2024-07-03 test at 96,704 miles and 2023-07-05 tests (both passed and failed at 89,876 and 89,873 miles respectively) indicate inconsistent compliance, though no specific defects were logged. This pattern implies intermittent maintenance or unresolved minor faults, though the absence of recorded issues limits definitive conclusions. The vehicle’s mileage of 102,763 miles over 16 years equates to approximately 6,423 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for its age. Notable gaps between tests—such as the 12-month interval between 2024-07-03 and 2025-07-15—may reflect periodic ownership changes or sporadic servicing. The 2023-07-05 tests, occurring within 12 hours of each other, suggest a possible administrative error or rushed retest, though no defects were noted. The record lacks significant wear indicators, but the repeated failures without recorded faults raise questions about the thoroughness of prior inspections. A buyer should verify the vehicle’s suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, given the age and mileage. Inspect brake systems for binding calipers or uneven disc wear, as these often emerge gradually. Check for corrosion in underbody panels and exhaust system integrity, as these can deteriorate over time. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the recurring unexplained failures warrant a detailed pre-purchase inspection to confirm mechanical stability and address any latent issues not captured in the recorded tests.
