2010 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · MJ60 GKA

The 2010 Ford Fiesta exhibits a stable roadworthiness profile based on its most recent MOT on 2025-10-27 at 117,231 miles, which resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. However, the MOT history reveals a pattern of repeated failures and passes on the same date, raising questions about administrative accuracy. Despite this inconsistency, the latest test outcome suggests the vehicle meets current standards. No structural corrosion, brake system issues, or suspension faults were flagged in the recorded tests, indicating the previous owner maintained basic compliance. The vehicle’s mileage of 117,231 miles over 16 years equates to an average of 7,327 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for its age. Notable gaps exist in the MOT history, with no records between 2023-10-31 (92,781 miles) and 2024-11-04 (105,284 miles), suggesting potential periods of non-compliance or missed inspections. The subsequent 12,000-mile increase to 117,231 miles by 2025-10-27 implies recent higher usage, which may accelerate wear on components like brake discs, suspension bushes, and exhaust systems. A buyer should conduct a thorough visual inspection for signs of rust, particularly in the underbody and wheel arches, common in older Fiestas. Check brake components for uneven wear or binding, as higher mileage can exacerbate these issues. Verify the condition of the exhaust system, as corrosion or leaks may not always trigger MOT failures. While the MOT records show no critical defects, the vehicle’s age and usage pattern warrant scrutiny of its drivetrain and electrical systems for hidden deterioration.
