2010 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · FP10 AHU

The 2010 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 January 2026 at 116,209 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from January 2024 through January 2025 also passed clean. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or escalating mechanical faults across the available record. Recorded mileage sits at 116,209 against a 16-year lifespan, averaging roughly 7,263 miles per year which is typical for the age. The test on 12 November 2022 at 96,229 miles shows a duplicate entry where the car first failed then passed on the same day with no defects logged, likely an administrative retest rather than a genuine fault. Annual increments between 2022 and 2026 stay consistent at around 5,000 to 9,000 miles, indicating steady private use rather than standing periods or high-stress mileage. The clean MOT history gives no cause to suspect suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural corrosion issues at present. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody integrity and brake caliper operation, as MOT passes do not certify component life remaining beyond the test day. The absence of advisories across four years suggests previous owners kept basic upkeep current. Given the car's age and 116k mileage, expect consumable wear on tyres, wiper blades, and exhaust hangers to emerge soon. The duplicate failure-and-pass in November 2022 warrants a check of the DVSA certificate to confirm no suppressed defect. Otherwise the record supports a sound used purchase for a low-annual-mileage driver.
