2010 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · AD10 OTU

The 2010 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy following a pass at 131,188 miles on 16 January 2026, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle carries a clean MOT ledger with no advisories or defects logged at any stage. A prior failure on 14 January 2026 at the same mileage was recorded with no defects cited, indicating an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault-based stop. Recorded mileage sits at 131,188 against an age of roughly sixteen years, equating to about 8,200 miles per year and reflecting typical use for a supermini of this period. The jump from 111,007 miles at the June 2022 test to 123,889 miles by August 2023 shows around 12,900 miles in fourteen months, a modest rise. A longer gap then follows into the December 2024 pass at 130,322 miles, adding only 6,433 miles across sixteen months, before the January 2026 tests closed at 131,188. The sparse five-entry record offers little granular wear data but shows no warning signs of neglect. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and 131k mileage, as these items draw no MOT comment yet degrade silently. Structural integrity around sills and subframes warrants a visual check for corrosion, particularly with winter road salt exposure over sixteen years. The absence of recurring faults means no pattern of deferred consumable care or mechanical risk is evident from the DVLA data alone. Treat the clean sheet as a positive but verify in person that the January 2026 failure was purely procedural before completing purchase.
