2013 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · FN13 ORO

The 2013 Ford Fiesta presents a broadly roadworthy status based on the most recent test. The tester passed the car on 13 March 2023 at 116,993 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend at that point. Two days earlier on 11 March 2023 the same mileage entry shows a failure with no defects listed, which points to an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage sits at 116,993 against a 13-year lifespan, averaging roughly 9,000 miles per year and matching typical use for the model. The record jumps from 112,234 miles at the 18 October 2021 test to 116,993 by March 2023, a modest 4,759 miles over seventeen months. Sparse history with only two pass cycles and one anomalous fail leaves large gaps unverified between 2021 and 2023. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and the uninspected interval. The clean advisories list means no corrosion, exhaust emissions, or binding calipers were flagged, but the lack of recorded checks before October 2021 hides early-life wear patterns. Prior owners kept consumable wear off the official radar, yet the twin 2023 entries at identical mileage suggest loose record-keeping rather than neglect of parts. Verify the V5C and any service invoices to confirm the 2023 failure cause before purchase.
