2012 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · AD12 ABO

This Ford Fiesta demonstrates an exceptional roadworthiness status and a strongly positive maintenance trend, underscored by the clean pass recorded on 6 February 2026 at 73,575 miles. The complete absence of advisories or failure points during the three most recent consecutive annual examinations points to diligent upkeep by the previous keeper. An isolated failure logged on 17 February 2023 at 61,080 miles, which was immediately rectified and followed by a successful pass on the exact same day, indicates an administrative or minor procedural hiccup rather than a deep-seated mechanical defect. The vehicle displays a low, highly consistent mileage accumulation rate that averages roughly 5,255 miles per year across its fourteen-year lifespan. The odometer progression shows regular, measured usage rather than periods of prolonged stagnation, moving from 61,080 miles in February 2023 to 64,758 miles by February 2024, climbing to 69,428 miles in February 2025, and finally reaching the current figure of 73,575 miles. This steady cadence suggests the hatchback has avoided the severe strain associated with high-mileage fleet work or short, battery-depleting urban stop-start journeys. A physical inspection should focus on standard consumable items rather than structural corrosion or chronic mechanical failures, given the pristine test history. Buyers must examine the condition of the brake discs and pads for surface rust or uneven scoring resulting from the modest annual mileage. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and exhaust mountings also warrant a thorough check on the ramp to ensure natural rubber degradation has not occurred due to age despite the lack of formal MOT advisories.
