This 2010 Ford has 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 12,067 miles. The history of overheating and timing chain issues in the Ford 1.4L engine is a major concern for this specific model.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 4,301 miles per year, with a significant drop in usage from 2019 onwards, suggesting periods of long inactivity.
Things to check
- Recurring brake system advisories across multiple tests (Sep 2020, Sep 2021, Sep 2023) indicate ongoing wear.
- Recurring suspension advisories (Sep 2020, Sep 2021) and a fractured coil spring (Sep 2020) suggest structural neglect.
- The 1.4L engine is prone to overheating and timing chain issues, which are critical for this model.
- The vehicle has been largely unused since 2019, which can lead to accelerated component degradation.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until September 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (4,301 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
- No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects, indicating current roadworthiness.
- The 1.4L engine is generally known for its durability and reliability when properly maintained.
