Our Verdict

A high-mileage example that has maintain

Focus on the service history to see how the 1.2L engine has been maintained over 131,000 miles. Given the repeated tyre wear on the front axle (recorded in 2023 and 2026), check the wheel alignment and the current condition of all four tyres to ensure there is no abnormal wear pattern.

Negotiate based on the high mileage compared to the model average of 5,779 miles per year. Ensure that any recent repairs, such as the tyre replacement required for the January 2026 MOT, are documented.

The 1.2L petrol engine is generally economical for city driving and typically falls into a modest insurance group for the Fiesta range. Tax bands for this era of 1.2L Fiesta are usually competitive, though you should verify the specific band for this registration.

Maintenance costs for a vehicle of this age and mileage may increase as wear-and-tear components reach the end of their life. Budget for more frequent replacements of consumables compared to a lower-mileage example.

Specifically check the nearside front shock absorber, as a light misting of oil was noted in January 2025. Inspect the front tyres for uneven wear, reflecting the MOT failures and advisories seen in 2023 and 2026, which may suggest an alignment issue.

Additionally, check the headlamps, exhaust, and coil springs, as these are the most common failure points across the wider Fiesta population based on aggregate data. A thorough check of the suspension components is advised given the previous shock absorber advisory.

This white 2013 Ford Fiesta 1.2L has covered 131,503 miles, which is well above the model's average annual figure. The MOT history shows a pattern of passes, though it has faced issues with front tyre tread depth in 2023 and 2026. A 2025 advisory regarding a misting nearside front shock absorber also remains a point of note.

The Ford Fiesta has an average MOT pass rate of 77.7%, with common failures often relating to headlamps, exhausts, and coil springs.
