2013 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · CU63 CVK

The 2013 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 26 January 2026 at 120,596 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a clean pass on 28 January 2025 at 118,856 miles. The January 2025 failure on the same date and mileage carries no listed defects, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Across the available record the vehicle shows no advisories or recorded wear items, pointing to consistent statutory testing without escalating concerns. Recorded mileage sits at 120,596 over roughly thirteen years, equating to about 9,277 miles per annum and matching typical use for the model age. The gap between the February 2023 test at 115,242 miles and the January 2024 pass at 116,916 miles shows only 1,674 miles covered, a low period suggesting limited running or short local journeys. From January 2024 to January 2026 the car added 3,680 miles, confirming light recent use. The sparse five-entry history contains no flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions issues. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age and the record's lack of detailed advisories. Standing periods implied by the low 2023 to 2024 mileage can accelerate perishables such as tyres, wiper blades, and brake caliper seizing even where the MOT shows a clear pass. Verify the January 2025 failure cause through DVSA portal data, as the blank defect field offers no technical explanation for the rejection. The clean test sequence and average mileage imply previous owners met basic statutory obligations without neglected consumable replacement. No recurring mechanical trend emerges from the supplied records. Pre-purchase checks should focus on coil springs, binding calipers, and general suspension condition to confirm the paper record reflects the car's true state.
