2013 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · BL13 AAX

The vehicle presents a consistent and stable maintenance profile based on the available MOT data. The most recent test on 31 January 2024 at 82,475 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows two previous consecutive passes in 2022 and 2023, indicating that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements without recurring failures or immediate mechanical concerns noted by the tester. The mileage accumulation appears steady and aligns with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 15,275 miles between the 2022 test at 67,200 miles and the 2024 test at 82,475 miles. This averages out to roughly 7,600 miles per year, which is slightly higher than the 6,344 annual average but remains well within the expected range for a standard commuter vehicle. There are no signs of erratic mileage jumps or long periods of inactivity that would suggest the vehicle has been standing for extended durations. While the MOT history is clean, the absence of advisories does not account for the natural wear of consumable components. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the suspension system, specifically checking for perished rubber bushes and worn coil springs, which often require attention as vehicles approach this age and mileage. The brake system should be examined for uneven pad wear or binding calipers, and the underside should be checked for surface corrosion on the exhaust and structural elements. Given the consistent pass history, the vehicle shows no evidence of systemic mechanical neglect. However, because the last recorded test was in early 2024, the current MOT status is technically overdue relative to July 2026. A buyer must verify that a valid MOT has been obtained recently and should check the service history to confirm that oil changes and fluid replacements have been carried out to supplement the basic compliance shown in these records.
