2012 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · FJ12 TZR

The 2012 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 March 2025 at 128,802 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the preceding examinations show the same clean outcome. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the available history, indicating the vehicle has not displayed worsening condition over the recorded period. Mileage sat at 92,447 miles for the July 2021 test, rose to 104,085 miles by July 2022, then 118,394 miles in July 2023, and reached 128,802 miles by March 2025. This equates to roughly 9,200 miles per year, typical for a fourteen-year-old car. A duplicate entry on 8 July 2022 shows both a fail and a pass at identical mileage with no defects logged, which points to an administrative retest rather than a genuine mechanical defect. The record is sparse but consistently clean, with no gaps suggesting prolonged disuse. Given the absence of flagged items, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of consumable and structural elements not always caught in a pass. Suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion warrant physical checks given the car's age and 128,802 miles of service. The clean MOT trail implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, yet a pass with no advisories does not confirm the true state of wear on dampers or exhaust emissions components. Prospective purchasers should verify service history to support the MOT record and confirm tyre tread depth, wiper condition, and binding calipers under load. The Fiesta shows no recorded trend of recurring faults, but high-mileage Ford hatchbacks of this era commonly develop steering rack play and rear beam rust unseen in a standard test.
