2012 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Diesel · GL12 FKS

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a history of clean passes over the last three years. Following a single failure in September 2020, the 2012 Ford Fiesta has undergone three consecutive tests with no recorded defects or advisories. The most recent inspection conducted on November 2023 at 130,013 miles indicates that the car met all safety and environmental standards without requiring remedial work. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,300 miles per year. Between October 2021 and November 2023, the car covered 21,579 miles, showing a steady rate of use rather than long periods of neglect or heavy commuting. The gap between the August 2022 test at 120,932 miles and the October 2021 test at 108,434 miles suggests a consistent maintenance schedule following the 2020 failure. While the digital record shows no outstanding advisories, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on common wear points for this model at the 130,000-mile mark. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking, as these components degrade over time despite clean MOT results. Given the age, inspect the integrity of the brake discs for excessive corrosion and check for thinning on the exhaust system, which the MOT tester may not have flagged as an immediate failure.
