2012 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · CE12 TRV

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a perfectly stable maintenance trend. The most recent test conducted on 4 July 2025 at 36,980 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This consistent streak of clean passes across the last four years indicates that the vehicle has been well-cared and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,641 miles per year. Between July 2022 and July 2025, the car covered only 5,387 miles, showing a consistent and modest pattern of roughly 1,800 miles annually recently. This low usage suggests short-distance city trips or long periods of stationary. While this reduces wear on the engine and primary braking components, it often increases the risk of age-related perish in rubber components and fluid degradation from lack of circulation. Given the clean MOT history, a physical inspection should focus on signs of neglect associated with low-mileage vehicles. A buyer must check for dry rot on the tyres, perished suspension bushes, and cracked rubber hoses that occur regardless of mileage. Because the car has not been driven frequently, the buyer should inspect the brake discs for pitting or seized calipers that may fail to engage properly. Additionally, checking the chassis for surface corrosion is vital, as low-mileage cars can still suffer rust if stored in damp environments without being driven regularly.
