2010 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · YC60 EXM

The vehicle appears to be in a stable mechanical condition based on the available data. It passed its most recent MOT on 18 May 2024 at 135,603 miles with no defects or advisories recorded. This clean bill of health follows two previous clean passes in May 2023 and May 2022, suggesting a consistent standard of maintenance and a lack of recurring mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the car, averaging roughly 8,475 miles per year. Between the May 2022 test at 114,979 miles and the May 2023 test at 123,005 miles, the car covered 8,026 miles. However, the usage increased significantly in the following year, with 12,598 miles added by the May 2024 test. This uptick in mileage is not excessive but indicates a period of heavier use. The absence of any advisories over the last three years is unusual for a sixteen year old vehicle with over 135,000 miles. While the record is clean, a buyer should still manually inspect the underbody for corrosion, as MOT testers often overlook minor surface rust that does not yet compromise structural integrity. Focus should also be placed on the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, which typically degrade at this mileage regardless of test outcomes. Given the gap since the last test in May 2024, the current MOT has expired. A fresh inspection is necessary to check for any new wear on consumables, such as brake discs and tyre tread, which may have deteriorated during the last 14 months of ownership. Check for any signs of oil leaks around the engine bay to ensure the drivetrain remains as healthy as the MOT history suggests.
