2013 Ford Fiesta 1.5L Diesel · CK13 ACY

The 2013 Ford Fiesta exhibits a stable roadworthiness status based on its most recent MOT record, which showed a pass on 2025-10-07 at 94,230 miles with no defects recorded. However, the alternating pass/fail results in 2024 and 2025—despite no defects noted—suggest potential inconsistencies in testing or maintenance practices. The absence of recorded issues in the latest test is positive, but the lack of detailed fault reports limits definitive conclusions about underlying mechanical health. The vehicle’s mileage of 94,230 miles over 13 years aligns with an average of 7,248 miles annually, a typical figure for its age. Notable gaps include a 11-day period between 2024-09-21 (84,702 miles) and 2024-10-02 (84,910 miles), where mileage increased by just 208 miles, possibly indicating infrequent use. Subsequent annual mileage growth from 84,910 to 94,230 miles reflects steady usage. The MOT history lacks recurring defects, suggesting no major systemic issues, though the sparse data prevents a comprehensive assessment of wear patterns. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, which are common failure points in older Fords. The absence of brake-related defects in MOT records does not preclude the need for a hands-on check of brake discs, calipers, and pad wear, as binding calipers or uneven disc wear could go unrecorded. Structural corrosion, especially in the underbody or chassis, should also be evaluated, as it often develops in vehicles with moderate mileage over a decade. While the MOT history shows no immediate risks, a professional inspection remains essential to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical integrity.
