2010 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · CB04 NEL

The vehicle appears mechanically sound based on the available MOT data, showing a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 7 February 2025 at 85,619 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passes without any noted advisories for several years, suggesting the car has been kept in a roadworthy state. The mileage is notably low for a 2010 model, averaging roughly 5,351 miles per year. The distance covered between the November 2022 test at 77,289 miles and the February 2024 test at 84,303 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 7,000 miles over 15 months. Since February 2024, the vehicle has covered only 1,316 miles, indicating it has seen very light use over the last 17 months. A buyer should focus on components that degrade due to age and inactivity rather than wear. While the MOT record is exceptionally clean, the low annual mileage increases the risk of perished rubber seals, seized brake calipers, or flat spots on tyres. Particular attention should be paid to the structural integrity of the chassis and sills, as older Fiestas are prone to corrosion that may not always be flagged if the vehicle is kept in a dry environment. Check the condition of the battery and fluids during a physical inspection. The lack of recorded defects over the last four years is positive, but it means the record provides no insight into when consumables like brake discs or suspension bushes were last replaced. Verifying service history for oil changes and timing belt intervals is essential to complement this clean MOT record.
