2010 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · BT59 NLE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the most recent inspection in November 2023. At 150,695 miles, the car passed the MOT with no recorded defects, indicating that it currently meets the minimum safety and emissions standards. While the history shows a pattern of failures immediately prior to passes, the subsequent clean reports suggest that the owner has been proactive in rectifying identified faults during the testing process. At 16 years old with 150,695 miles, this Fiesta has averaged approximately 9,400 miles per year. This mileage profile aligns closely with national averages for a passenger vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 24,000 miles covered between October 2021 and October 2022, and another 10,400 miles covered in the year leading up to the November 2023 test. However, the last MOT was conducted over nineteen months ago. Given the current date of June 2026, the vehicle is significantly overdue for testing and requires an immediate legal inspection. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension components and braking system, as high-mileage Fiestas of this era suffer from worn rubber bushes, perished coil springs, and thinning. The recorded failures in 2021 and 2022 indicate that mechanical components have reached the end of their service life previously. Particular attention must be paid to structural corrosion along the sills and rear wheel arches, as these are common points of failure for this model regardless of a seemingly clean MOT history.
