2012 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · CV12 UKM

The 2012 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 2 April 2026 at 45,666 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean results since March 2023. The vehicle shows no advisories or recurring mechanical faults across the supplied history, indicating consistent statutory compliance. Recorded mileage stands at 45,666 miles against an April 2026 test, equating to roughly 3,262 miles per year from new. The DVSA data shows measured climbs of 4,978 miles between April 2023 (33,862) and March 2024 (38,880), then 2,980 miles to April 2025 (41,860), and 3,806 miles to April 2026. A failed test on 10 April 2025 at 41,860 miles listed no defects, with the same mileage passing the next day, suggesting an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Low annual use implies light duty but also possible prolonged standing periods. Given the absence of flagged items, the buyer should still commission a physical inspection of consumable and structural elements not captured by a pass with no defects. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness warrant hands-on checks for age-related degradation. Drivetrain mounts and underbody corrosion should be examined, as fourteen years of service can conceal rust outside the test scope. Previous keepers maintained statutory MOT compliance without deferred testing. The clean record and low mileage suggest basic upkeep was not skipped, though the 2025 duplicate entry shows minor paperwork handling rather than neglect. A pre-purchase inspection remains prudent to confirm hidden wear.
