2012 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Diesel · KV62 WDW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing tests. The most recent inspection conducted on 4 September 2025 at 80,406 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a failure occurred in early September 2024 at 75,141 miles, the immediate pass on the same day suggests the owner was proactive in rectifying identified faults without allowing them to persist. At fourteen years old, the recorded mileage of 80,406 miles represents a low usage pattern of approximately 5,700 miles per year. This low intensity typically results in less wear on the drivetrain and engine components. The data shows a steady progression of mileage, with roughly 5,000 to 6,000 miles covered between the 2022 and 2025 tests. This regularity suggests the vehicle has been used consistently for short-distance trips rather than sitting stationary for long periods, which can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components despite low mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components most susceptible to age-related rather than distance. Despite the clean recent records, the 2012 Fiesta requires a close check for perished rubberwork in the suspension bushes and shock absorbers, which often degrade over time. Inspect the brake discs for surface rust or pitting, as low-mileage vehicles are prone to caliper corrosion. Given the low mileage, also verify the condition of the tyres for sidewall cracking, as rubber can age and lose grip long before the tread reaches the legal limit.
