2012 Ford Fusion 1.6L Petrol · EY12 WHB

The 2012 Ford Fusion presents a clean and stable maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT on 16 February 2026 at 43,356 miles passing with zero defects. Every recorded annual test from 2022 through 2026 has returned a pass with no advisories or failures, indicating consistent mechanical upkeep and no emerging faults. This is a strong record for a fourteen-year-old vehicle. The mileage accumulation is notably low, averaging roughly 3,097 miles per year. Between the February 2025 test at 41,802 miles and the February 2026 test at 43,356 miles, the vehicle covered just 1,554 miles in twelve months, suggesting very light recent use or possible periods of standing. The earlier intervals show similarly modest annual increments, with 1,831 miles added between February 2024 and February 2025, and 2,260 miles between February 2023 and February 2024. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer record, and the MOT entries align with the stated mileage progression. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should still inspect the underside for surface corrosion on suspension mounting points, subframes, and sills, as low-mileage vehicles that stand for extended periods can develop localised rust even without structural failure. The tyres deserve close attention given the low annual mileage, as original or aged rubber may show cracking or uneven wear regardless of remaining tread depth. Brake discs and pads should be checked for corrosion-induced binding, a common issue on lightly used cars where components do not get regular thermal cycling. The exhaust system and DPF, if fitted, should be examined for condition, as short-trip use can accelerate soot buildup and moisture-related deterioration in the silencer and catalytic converter.
