2013 Ford Fiesta 1.4L Diesel · FX13 AAN

This vehicle presents a stable and unusually clean MOT history for its age. The most recent test on 4 October 2024 at 148,286 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This trend has remained consistent over the last five years, with the car passing without recorded faults in September 2023 and October 2021. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a 2013 model. The vehicle covered 14,197 miles between October 2022 and September 2023, and a further 14,197 miles by October 2024. This steady increase suggests the car has been in regular use rather than sitting idle, which generally helps prevent seals from perishing and brakes from seizing. The absence of any advisories across multiple tests is rare for a Ford Fiesta of this vintage and mileage. Usually, vehicles with nearly 150,000 miles show recurring issues with suspension bushes, coil springs, or exhaust corrosion. The record shows a failure and immediate pass on 6 October 2022 at 122,058 miles, though the specific reason for that failure was not detailed in the provided data. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the underbody and sills to check for structural corrosion, as MOT testers vary in their rigour regarding surface rust. Given the high mileage, checking the condition of the clutch and the smoothness of the gear changes is advisable. While the MOT record is clean, these drivetrain components are subject to wear that the annual test does not always capture.
