2013 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · YH13 AEC

This vehicle presents as mechanically sound with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 9 March 2026 at 59,573 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects. Although the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The mileage is exceptionally low for a thirteen year old car, averaging roughly 4,583 miles per year. The accumulation has remained consistent over the last four years, growing from 40,480 miles in March 2023 to 59,573 miles in March 2026. This steady increase indicates the car has been used regularly rather than left standing for long periods, which reduces the risk of perished seals or seized calipers. The MOT history is unusually clean, showing no advisories or failures across several years of testing. While this suggests a well-maintained vehicle, the absence of any flagged wear on consumables like brake discs, tyres, or suspension bushes is atypical for a car of this age. A buyer should verify the service history to ensure oil changes and filter replacements occurred regardless of the low annual mileage. A physical inspection should focus on areas the MOT might overlook, specifically the condition of the rubber components and the presence of surface corrosion on the chassis. Check for signs of oil leaks around the engine bay and ensure the battery health is optimal. Given the lack of recorded faults, the primary goal is to confirm that the mechanical condition matches the pristine nature of the DVSA record.
