AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2010 Ford Fiesta passed its most recent MOT on 13 November 2025 at 75,451 miles, but the record shows a worsening maintenance trend. A failed test on the same date for dead offside front position lamp, offside rear stop lamp, binding front brake and sill corrosion was corrected the same day to secure the pass. The binding front brake and sill corrosion carried over from the 2024 failures, confirming these faults are persistent rather than resolved. The odometer read 69,455 miles in November 2023, 72,519 in November 2024 and 75,451 in November 2025. That is roughly 3,000 miles per year, well below the 4,716 annual average for the vehicle's age. Low use over 16 years suggests long standing periods, which the corrosion advisories on sub-frame and sills appear to support. No rapid accumulation or missing-year gaps exist in the supplied data. The tester flagged offside front service brake binding in three consecutive tests: excessively binding in November 2024 at 72,514 miles, then not excessively in November 2024 pass and November 2025 at 75,451 miles. Binding calipers or seized slides need physical inspection. Steering rack inner joint play appeared in 2023 and track rod end play failed the car in 2024; check steering geometry and rack condition. Structural rust is the dominant concern. Sub-frame corrosion both sides showed in 2024, sill and body mounting corrosion recurred through 2024 and 2025, and the November 2025 pass still notes sill corrosion. A buyer should lift the car for underside inspection of sub-frame, sills and suspension mounts before purchase.
