2012 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · FG62 PVU

The maintenance trend for this 2012 Ford Fiesta remains stable, culminating in a clean pass at its most recent MOT on 12 March 2026 at 92,742 miles. The tester recorded zero defects on that date, indicating the vehicle met all required safety and emissions standards at the time of inspection. A failed test occurred the previous day, 11 March 2026, yet the official record curiously lists no defects for that failure. Regardless, the immediate retest and subsequent pass suggest any minor issue was swiftly rectified. No recurring mechanical or structural faults appear across the documented history, pointing to a consistent baseline of roadworthiness rather than a deteriorating condition. The mileage accumulation aligns closely with typical usage for a fourteen-year-old vehicle. Between the March 2024 test at 80,200 miles and the March 2025 test at 88,159 miles, the Fiesta covered 7,959 miles. The following year, up to the March 2026 test at 92,742 miles, the mileage increased by 4,583 miles. This averages out to roughly 6,624 miles per year, reflecting regular, moderate use rather than prolonged standing or excessively high motorway mileage. The data shows no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in distance traveled, reinforcing a pattern of consistent, everyday driving. Although the MOT record contains no flagged defects or advisories to guide a targeted inspection, a physical assessment must focus on typical wear points for a Fiesta of this age and mileage. Buyers should inspect the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components degrade over time regardless of mileage. The brake discs and pads require close scrutiny for wear and corrosion, particularly if the vehicle has spent periods stationary. Structural integrity around the sills, subframes, and floor pan demands a thorough check for corrosion, a common affliction for aging superminis. An in-person evaluation will verify whether the mechanical condition matches the clean paperwork.
