2012 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · BD62 ABO

The 2012 Ford Fiesta presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT on 9 May 2025 at 82,283 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. The DVSA log shows a fail on the same date at identical mileage with no defects listed, mirroring an earlier pair of tests on 19 and 20 September 2023 at 77,714 miles where a fail preceded a pass without any fault noted. This recurring administrative-style anomaly aside, the mechanical trend across the available history is stable and free of advisories. At approximately 14 years old the vehicle displays 82,283 recorded miles, a low average of around 5,877 miles per year. The records trace 77,714 miles on 20 September 2023, rising to 79,332 miles by 30 May 2024 and 82,283 miles by 9 May 2025. That equates to modest annual accumulations of roughly 1,600 and 3,000 miles in the respective intervals. Such low progression suggests gentle use, though the unchanged mileage across the same-day fail and pass entries confirms the car was stationary during those procedural events. Despite the clean advisory sheet a buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs and brake discs for corrosion or binding calipers, since extended low mileage and standing promote perished rubber and surface rust on structural components. The tester logged no structural integrity concerns, yet the two anomalous failures with zero defects merit scrutiny of the underlying DVSA paperwork to rule out omitted mechanical faults. Previous owners kept the test schedule punctual, but absence of advisories reveals nothing about consumable wear such as tyre age, wiper blades or exhaust condition.
