2010 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · CE60 BEJ

The 2010 Ford Fiesta exhibits a stable roadworthiness trend, with all five MOT tests from 2017 to 2021 recording no defects. The most recent test on 2021-11-08 at 83,119 miles confirmed compliance, indicating consistent maintenance. No recurring issues or advisories were noted across the six-year span, suggesting the vehicle has been well-preserved. The absence of failures or critical faults implies the previous owner prioritized regular servicing, though the low mileage raises questions about long-term component health. The vehicle’s mileage of 83,119 miles over 16 years equates to approximately 5,195 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This suggests either infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on rubber components and electrical systems. The MOT intervals align with annual testing, but gaps between 2017-10-14 (55,895 miles) and 2018-10-12 (67,059 miles) show a 11,164-mile increase, followed by gradual growth. Such patterns may indicate seasonal usage or storage, warranting closer inspection of corrosion and fluid degradation. A buyer should prioritize checking suspension components, particularly rear coil springs and bushings, as low mileage can mask wear in these areas. The brake system, including discs and calipers, should be assessed for corrosion or uneven pad wear, as prolonged inactivity may cause binding. Additionally, the exhaust system and body panels should be scrutinized for rust, as the vehicle’s age and mileage suggest potential structural vulnerabilities. No MOT failures or advisories were recorded, but proactive inspection remains critical to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical integrity.
