2012 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · YP62 AEC

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance trend over the last three years. Following a failure in October 2022 at 106,199 miles, the car achieved three consecutive passes without any defects or advisories recorded. This recent streak of clean results, culminating in the most recent test in October 2025, indicates that the current owner is proactively addressing mechanical wear and tear before they escalate into MOT test failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent and realistic for a fourteen-year-old vehicle. The car has averaged approximately 8,700 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK domestic usage patterns. Between October 2023 and October 2025, the vehicle covered 10,460 miles, showing a steady progression of roughly 5,200 miles annually recently. This regularity suggests the engine has not been subjected to long periods of stagnation, which often leads to seized brakes, perished rubber components, or fuel degradation. While the MOT record is clean, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of components prone to wear on a Fiesta of this age. At 121,000 miles, the suspension bushes, control arms, and coil springs often show signs of fatigue that may not yet trigger a failure. You should check for corrosion on the rear sills and structural members, as the MOT only flags structural rust once it becomes significant. Given the lack of advisories in the latest records, verify the thickness of the brake pads and the condition of the tyres to ensure the maintenance standard continues beyond the documented history.
