2013 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · FL63 WTZ

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 19 December 2025 at 41,889 miles, though the maintenance trend indicates a worsening mechanical condition. While the car passed its most recent inspection, it required a retest following a failure for a track rod end with excessive play and a corroded brake pipe. The presence of recurring advisory items regarding brake disc condition and the progression of suspension wear suggest that the vehicle has been subjected to minimal preventative maintenance, with faults often reaching the point of failure before being addressed. With a total of 41,889 miles over thirteen years, the vehicle averages approximately 3,222 miles per annum. This low usage pattern is consistent across the recorded history, with the odometer increasing by roughly 1,200 to 1,400 miles annually between 2023 and 2025. Such limited mileage often results in components seizing or perishing due to inactivity rather than heavy wear. The MOT record shows no significant gaps in testing, confirming the vehicle has remained in service despite the low annual accumulation. Prospective buyers should prioritise a thorough inspection of the braking system and rear suspension components. The history of worn, pitted, and scored brake discs suggests that the friction surfaces are nearing the end of their service life, and the previously flagged brake pipe corrosion warrants a physical check to ensure the repair was performed to a high standard. Furthermore, the rear axle bushes have been flagged as deteriorated or excessively worn in consecutive years, indicating that the rear suspension geometry may be compromised. Check the front subframe for the reported surface corrosion to ensure it has not developed into structural degradation, as this is a common point of failure for this model.
