2012 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · LM62 OLK

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable and consistent maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 13 February 2026 at 45,900 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This clean sheet across the last five tests suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered from recurring mechanical or structural failures typically seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a fourteen-year-old Ford, averaging approximately 3,279 miles per year. Between February 2022 and February 2026, the car covered only 5,744 miles, maintaining a consistent interval of roughly 1,436 miles per annum. This low usage typically implies less wear on the drivetrain, engine components, and braking system compared to average driven vehicles. However, such low mileage can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid breakdown due to sitting rather than mechanical stress. While the MOT history shows no faults, a buyer must physically inspect specific areas susceptible to age-related wear regardless of mileage. Priority should be given to checking for cracked suspension bushes, split hoses, and tyres, which can perish over time even if tread depth remains high. The buyer should also examine the brake discs for corrosion or pitting and perform an underbody inspection for any structural rust or surface corrosion. Given the low mileage, verifying the condition of the timing belt and the state of the fluids is essential to ensure the vehicle has not aged prematurely while stationary.
