2013 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · NL13 AAX

The 2013 Ford Fiesta presents a currently roadworthy status following its most recent MOT pass on 17 January 2026 at 80,489 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with the two earlier failures on 23 January 2024 and 23 January 2025 both showing no defects recorded, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the test centre rather than mechanical faults. No advisories or recurring wear items appear across any entry. Recorded mileage rose from 72,950 at the January 2024 test to 76,677 by January 2025, then to 80,489 in January 2026. That equates to roughly 3,700 miles per year over the last two intervals, below the lifetime average of 6,191 miles per year. The low annual use suggests lighter commuting or periods of standing, which can accelerate rubber perishing and surface corrosion even where the test found nothing. The DVSA data is sparse and clean, offering no flag on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or exhaust emissions. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's thirteen-year age and low mileage pattern. Standing time promotes subframe rust and seized brake calipers that a pass with no defects may not capture if superficially sound. Check coil springs and suspension mounts for fatigue cracks, and verify brake disc condition for pitting from disuse. The clean record implies previous owners kept basic statutory testing current, though the twin failure entries with zero defects point to test centre error rather than owner neglect. Confirm service history against the 80,489-mile odometer and inspect consumables such as wiper blades and tyres for age-related hardening before purchase.
