2010 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · CV10 JFN

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition with a remarkably stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent test on 21 February 2026 at 54,472 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, despite an initial failure on the same day which also listed no defects. This suggests a potential administrative or technical entry error that was immediately rectified, confirming that the mechanical and structural components currently meet all DVSA safety standards. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,400 miles per year. Between February 2023 at 50,439 miles and February 2026 at 54,472 miles, the car covered only 4,033 miles. This low-frequency usage typically indicates minimal wear on the drivetrain, engine internals, and braking systems. However, long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and seized brake calipers, which are not always captured by mileage figures alone. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age and inactivity rather than mileage. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or corrosion, and check for seized calipers or pitted brake discs due to the low usage. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check of the structural integrity around the sills and wheel arches is essential, as surface rust can develop regardless of how few miles the car has driven.
