2010 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · FH10 SGX

The maintenance trend for this 2010 Ford Fiesta is entirely stable, demonstrating consistent mechanical health across the recorded history. The most recent MOT test on 3 November 2025 at 68,822 miles passed with zero defects. A failure was logged on that exact same date and mileage with no defects recorded, which typically indicates an administrative anomaly or an aborted test rather than a mechanical fault, given the simultaneous pass. From 2022 through 2025, every single test has passed without a single advisory or defect, indicating a vehicle that has required no corrective maintenance to meet roadworthiness standards. The mileage accumulation aligns perfectly with the vehicle's age, reflecting light, regular use rather than long periods of dormancy. Between October 2022 at 57,619 miles and October 2024 at 64,268 miles, the Fiesta covered roughly 3,000 to 3,500 miles annually. The most recent year saw a slightly higher accumulation of 4,554 miles, reaching 68,822 miles by November 2025. This equates to an average of approximately 4,301 miles per year over its sixteen-year lifespan, a figure well below the national average. The steady, incremental increases show no sudden spikes or unexplained gaps in the record. Because the MOT record contains no flagged defects, a buyer must focus on age-related deterioration rather than recurring mechanical failures. At sixteen years old, rubber suspension bushes, brake hoses, and tyre sidewalls will suffer from perishing and cracking regardless of the low mileage. An in-person inspection should prioritize the underbody and structural mounting points for corrosion, a common issue for aging Fiestas. The exhaust system and flexible brake pipes also warrant close scrutiny for rust and age-related wear. While the absence of advisories suggests the previous owner maintained the vehicle adequately, low-mileage vehicles can develop issues from standing still. Check the condition of the brake discs for surface rust that can cause binding, and assess the tyre tread depth and date codes. A thorough inspection of the suspension components for dry rot will confirm whether the light use has preserved the rubber or if time has degraded it.
