2010 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · LS60 YVR

The most recent MOT on 2025-05-30 recorded 172,507 miles, with the vehicle passing but noting multiple minor issues. These included an oil leak (not excessive), deteriorated registration plates, tyres near the legal limit, and slight play in the front track rod end. The same MOT also highlighted a nearside front tyre with cracking, which had been previously noted in earlier tests. These findings suggest ongoing wear in tyres and steering components, with no major safety risks but consistent maintenance needs. Recurring issues over the past five years include tyre wear, brake disc scoring, and electrical faults. Tyres have repeatedly been near the legal limit or showing damage, while brake discs have shown pitting or scoring without serious weakening. Electrical problems, such as non-working position lamps and discoloured indicators, appeared in both failed and passed MOTs, indicating potential wiring or bulb issues. The oil leak has also been a recurring concern, though described as non-excessive. These patterns suggest the vehicle has experienced gradual wear rather than sudden deterioration. The trend of issues appears stable rather than worsening.
