2012 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · EV51 DEL

The vehicle currently presents a roadworthy status with an improving trend in maintenance stability. The most recent inspection conducted in November 2025 at 65,261 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that previous mechanical issues have been successfully addressed. While the history shows instances of failure in 2023 and 2024, the subsequent clean passes suggest the current owner is proactive in rectifying faults identified by the DVSA tester. The mileage profile is notably low for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,600 miles per year. Between November 2023 and November 2024, the car covered 4,577 miles, while the following year saw 4,147 miles recorded. This consistent low usage suggests light annual commuting. Such mileage typically results in less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though long periods of stationary use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components, fluid acidity, and surface corrosion on brake discs. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas that caused the failures in November 2023 and November 2024, as the provided data does not specify the exact nature of those faults. Given the age of the Fiesta, these are likely related to suspension bushes, control arm bolts, or emissionsrelated sensors that perish over time regardless of mileage. Inspect the underside for structural corrosion on the sills and rear mounting points, as low-mileage cars often hide hidden rust if they were stored in damp environments.
