2016 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · FH16 YCM

The 2016 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 June 2025 at 43,524 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing a clean run across the available history. Mileage sits low for a ten-year-old car at 43,524 recorded miles, averaging roughly 4,352 miles per year. The records show steady, light use: 35,376 miles in May 2022, 37,449 at the May 2023 pass, 40,645 in May 2024, and 43,524 by June 2025. A failed test on 18 May 2023 at 37,448 miles shows no defects logged, indicating an administrative or presentational failure rather than a mechanical fault, with the same-day pass confirming the car was otherwise sound. The sparse, clean record gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural work. Given the absence of advisories across all tests, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion. Low annual mileage often means long stationary periods that accelerate rubber perishing and surface rust on structural members. No recurring faults or serious mechanical risks appear in the DVLA data. The previous keeper maintained test compliance without flagged wear, suggesting basic upkeep was met.
