2013 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · CU13 XES

The maintenance trend for this 2013 Ford Fiesta appears stable, though the lack of a recent MOT raises immediate concerns about its current legality and condition. The most recent test on 24 April 2023 at 101,814 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating the vehicle met minimum safety standards at that time. A failed test on 14 April 2023 at 101,675 miles also lists no defects, suggesting an aborted test or an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical failure. The car has now sat outside the MOT system for over three years, meaning its present structural and mechanical state remains entirely unverified by current standards. The recorded mileage of 101,814 miles over thirteen years equates to roughly 7,832 miles per year, a typical usage pattern for a small hatchback. Between the April 2022 pass at 93,941 miles and the April 2023 tests at 101,675 miles, the Fiesta covered 7,734 miles in twelve months, confirming regular use up to that point. The 139-mile jump over the ten-day gap in April 2023 aligns with a standard retest following the initial failure. Since that April 2023 pass, the odometer has not been officially recorded, leaving the mileage accumulation over the last three years completely unknown. With no recurring mechanical faults documented in the history, a buyer must focus on typical wear items prone to deterioration on a 13-year-old Fiesta, especially if it has stood idle for extended periods. Tyres will likely suffer from flat-spotting or perished sidewalls if the car has remained stationary since 2023. Brake discs and calipers demand close inspection for surface corrosion and binding, common issues when a vehicle sits unused. Suspension bushes and coil springs require a thorough check for deterioration, as the lack of recent testing means any structural corrosion or component fatigue has gone unmonitored. A fresh MOT will be necessary to legally drive the vehicle, providing a baseline assessment of its current roadworthiness.
