2013 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · YH63 ABK

The 2013 Ford Fiesta has maintained a clean MOT history since its last test on 2025-09-03, where it passed without any defects at 117,617 miles. The record shows no recurring issues or advisories over the past three years, indicating a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test confirms the vehicle remains compliant with current DVSA standards, though the single failure in 2024—unusually noted at 106,562 miles—was resolved immediately the following day without further mention of the fault. This suggests either a minor oversight or a quick rectification, but no pattern of mechanical neglect is evident. The vehicle’s mileage progression of approximately 9,000 miles annually aligns with typical usage for its age, with no abrupt spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity. The gap between tests is consistent at one year, and the recorded mileage increments—ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 miles per cycle—reflect steady driving rather than aggressive or neglectful usage. The absence of advisories or partial passes implies previous owners adhered to basic maintenance intervals, though no service records are available to confirm more detailed upkeep. Given the lack of MOT defects, priority should be given to inspecting high-wear components expected at this mileage. The suspension—particularly rear bushes and coil springs—should be checked for excessive play or corrosion, as should the brake calipers and discs for uneven wear or binding. The exhaust system warrants scrutiny for leaks or rust penetration, especially around joints and mounts, while the underbody should be examined for structural corrosion, particularly around the sills and wheel arches. The tyres, though not flagged in tests, may require assessment for uneven tread wear or remaining tread depth, given their age and mileage. The 2024 failure, if it occurred, should prompt verification of its nature, though the immediate pass suggests it was trivial.
