2010 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Diesel · CV10 WGF

The Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy following the October 2025 test, where the tester passed it at 76,878 miles with no defects logged. The maintenance trend is stable and clean across the three years of records. A minor administrative quirk appears on 27 October 2025, when the car first failed at 76,871 miles with no defects listed, then passed later the same day at 76,878 miles; an identical pattern occurred on 17 October 2024, failing at 72,524 miles and passing at 72,525 miles. These zero-defect failures suggest clerical or system errors rather than mechanical faults. The recorded mileage shows light use for a 16-year-old vehicle. The October 2023 test at 68,188 miles rose to 72,525 miles by October 2024, then to 76,878 miles by October 2025. That equates to roughly 4,300 to 4,350 miles per year, confirming low annual accumulation. No rapid jumps or standing gaps appear in the data. The sparse, defect-free history offers little evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural care. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the car. Low-mileage Fords of this era commonly develop corrosion on sill seams and subframe mounts even when MOT advisories are absent. The tester recorded no brake disc wear, suspension bush degradation, or exhaust emissions faults, yet rubber components age with time regardless of miles travelled. Verify the duplicate failure entries with DVSA before purchase, as the same-day fail-pass cycles warrant confirmation they reflect no concealed defect. Check tyre sidewall condition and wiper blade wear, as these consumables fall outside MOT fail thresholds at this mileage. The clean record implies a careful prior owner, but standing periods can hide seized calipers or flat-spotted tyres unseen on the test ramp.
