2010 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · HG10 TKT

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent inspection in December 2025 with 152,038 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car consistently secures a pass following initial failures. The pattern of failing in both late 2024 and late 2025, followed immediately by passes, suggests that minor mechanical or consumable issues are being addressed promptly before the re-test rather than indicating a systemic mechanical or structural failure. At sixteen years of age, the 152,038 recorded miles represent an average usage of approximately 9,500 miles per annum. This aligns with typical usage patterns for a small city car. The data shows consistent movement, with roughly 14,000 miles covered between the November 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 14,000 miles between the 2024 and December 2025 tests. This regularity suggests the vehicle is used regularly, which often helps prevent the seal drying out and component degradation associated with long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking components, as the high mileage puts significant stress on coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers. Given the recurring failures followed by immediate passes, the tester likely flagged wear-related items such as bulbs, tyre tread depth, or minor fluid leaks. Inspect the underside for structural corrosion, particularly around the sills and rear mounting points, as structural integrity is the primary concern for a Fiesta of this age despite a currently clean MOT history.
