2013 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · CU13 UFL

The 2013 Ford Fiesta currently fails the roadworthiness standard after the 10 April 2026 MOT at 89,190 miles returned a failure with no defects recorded. This anomaly points to an administrative or presentational failure rather than a logged mechanical fault. Prior to that, the vehicle held a clean pass history from April 2022 through April 2025, so the underlying maintenance trend reads as stable with no worsening advisories across four consecutive tests. Recorded mileage sits at 89,190 against a 13-year lifespan, averaging roughly 6,861 miles per year, which is typical for the model age. The odometer moved from 72,460 on 13 April 2022 to 75,153 by 27 March 2023, then 78,446 on 15 April 2024, 83,479 on 8 April 2025, and 89,190 at the failed 2026 test. Annual accumulation stayed between 3,000 and 5,700 miles with no sudden jumps or dormant gaps. The DVSA log shows no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions at any stage. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the sparse record. The April 2026 failure with zero defects demands clarification from the selling party and the issuing test station before any purchase. Verify the V5C and DVSA portal to confirm the entry is not a data error or unprocessed retest. Mechanically, the clean pass run implies previous owners kept consumables and structural items within limits, yet absence of advisories does not rule out worn coil springs or binding calipers hidden by light use. Check underneath for structural rust and test the braking balance on a road trial. Given the low yearly mileage, age-related perishing of hoses and tyres remains a real risk even with a clear history.
