2010 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · FP60 CDX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent inspection without any recorded defects. The MOT test on 28 November 2023 at 120,957 miles resulted in a clean pass immediately following an initial failure on the same day. This indicates that the previous owner was proactive in rectifying identified issues to ensure compliance, maintaining a consistent record of passing without lingering advisories over the last two years of recorded testing. At 120,957 miles over 16 years, the Fiesta averages approximately 7,560 miles per annum. This mileage profile aligns with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this age. The data shows a period of activity between February 2022 and November 2023, where the car covered 18,598 miles in roughly twenty months. However, since the last MOT was conducted in November 2023, the vehicle is now over eighteen months overdue for its next annual test. This significant gap increases the likelihood that undetected wear, such as perished rubber components or brake corrosion, may have developed since the last professional assessment. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the undercarriage and suspension components, as the record shows two failures followed by immediate passes. While the specific reasons for those failures were not detailed in the summary, such patterns often involve components like control arm bushes, shock absorbers, or bulbs requiring adjustment. Given the age of the vehicle, a close examination of structural corrosion on the sills, rear wheel arches, and the exhaust system is essential. Because the MOT is now significantly lapsed, a thorough check of the tyre tread depth and brake fluid integrity is a primary priority before finalizing any purchase.
