2013 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Petrol · K29 JDN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following its most recent MOT pass on 16 July 2026 at 112,515 miles, which recorded no defects. This follows a period of intermittent mechanical issues between 2022 and 2025. The maintenance trend shows a transition from frequent failures involving suspension and braking components to a cleaner recent history. While the 2025 test at 105,203 miles flagged pitted brake discs and an exhaust emissions failure, these issues appear to have been rectified to achieve the current clean certificate. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,655 miles per year. The record shows steady usage without significant periods of inactivity or sudden surges in mileage. For instance, the vehicle travelled roughly 15,000 miles between the July 2024 and July 2025 tests, which is slightly higher than the annual average but remains within a reasonable operating range for a daily driver. A prospective buyer should focus on the suspension and braking systems during a physical inspection. The MOT history reveals a recurring pattern of failures related to coil springs, suspension arm bushes, and ball joints, specifically noted in the June 2022 and July 2024 tests. Although these faults were cleared, the repeated failure of both front and rear coil springs suggests the vehicle may have encountered significant road impacts or is reaching a stage where rubber components and springs require systematic replacement. The brake history also warrants scrutiny. The tester repeatedly flagged worn or pitted discs and thinning pads between 2022 and 2025. While the 2026 test shows no current issues, the frequency of these advisories and failures suggests that the braking system has undergone multiple interventions. Finally, the intermittent exhaust emissions failures in 2024 and 2025 indicate that the engine's combustion efficiency has been inconsistent, so a thorough check of the exhaust system and engine management is advisable.
