2010 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · FG60 ACX

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 2025‑08‑29 at 114,681 mi with no recorded defects, indicating current roadworthiness. The maintenance trend shows improvement, moving from multiple failures between 2018 and 2025 to a clean test now, although recurring brake‑pad wear at 110,658 mi suggests ongoing consumable upkeep that will need attention. Mileage accumulation has been roughly 7,200 mi per year over the car’s 16‑year life. MOT entries reveal a steady rise, with a notable jump from 89,125 mi on 2023‑01‑21 to 103,486 mi on 2024‑02‑08 – a 14,361‑mi increase in just over a year – followed by the latest reading of 114,681 mi on 2025‑08‑29. The interval between the 2022 test (85,290 mi) and the 2024 test is longer than the typical annual cycle, indicating occasional gaps in testing, but overall mileage growth remains typical for the vehicle’s age. A buyer should inspect several items highlighted by the history. Brake pads must be checked for wear approaching the 1.1.13 threshold; front tyres show edge wear and rear tyres display inner‑edge smoothing, indicating possible alignment or suspension issues – tyre tread depth and even wear should be verified. The rear suspension arm ball joint and rear axle swivel pins were recorded as excessively worn; these components require close visual and movement inspection. Slight rim distortion on the rear wheels noted in 2022‑02‑01 merits a balance and damage check. The exhaust joint leak and direction‑indicator discolouration are minor but should be confirmed operational. Finally, the fractured front coil spring logged in 2021‑02‑08 demands a spring‑rate inspection if the part remains in service.
