2010 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Petrol · NJ60 MXH

The 2010 Ford Fiesta presents a stable and exemplary maintenance trend, passing its most recent MOT on 8 December 2025 at 131,769 miles with zero defects recorded. Every preceding annual test back to 2021 also passed without a single advisory or failure. This unblemished record indicates a vehicle that has met minimum roadworthiness standards consistently, reflecting diligent upkeep rather than repeated mechanical rectification. The mileage accumulation tells a story of consistent, typical use that has recently tapered off. Between October 2021 and October 2023, the car covered roughly 9,500 miles annually, a standard pace for a vehicle of this age. The 2024 test recorded a slightly higher increment of 12,070 miles, but the most recent interval leading to the December 2025 test shows a significant drop to just 2,538 miles. This recent low mileage suggests the Fiesta has spent extended periods standing still, which demands a closer look at components that deteriorate through inactivity rather than use. Despite the flawless MOT history, the recent drop in annual mileage warrants a physical inspection of components susceptible to seizure or perishing during prolonged static periods. A buyer should closely examine the condition of the tyres for flat-spotting or sidewall cracking, and check the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion that can develop when a car sits unused. Suspension bushes and exhaust mounts also merit attention, as rubber perishes with age regardless of mileage. While the record implies a mechanically sound vehicle, verifying the condition of these static-wear items will confirm whether the recent low mileage has caused any latent deterioration.
