2013 Ford Fiesta 1.5L Diesel · FN63 AKO

The 2013 Ford Fiesta presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 22 January 2026 at 91,765 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing a clean run of annual examinations. Prior passes on 2 June 2025 at 89,476 miles, 6 June 2024 at 85,500 miles, and 13 October 2023 at 82,655 miles all logged no advisories or faults. The only blemish is a failure on 11 October 2023 at 82,628 miles, cleared two days later at the same mileage with no defects cited, indicating a clerical or minor rectification turnaround rather than a serious mechanical fault. Recorded mileage sits at 91,765 against a 13-year lifespan, an average of roughly 7,059 miles per year and typical for the model age. The gap between the October 2023 tests and the June 2024 examination covers only eight months yet adds 2,872 miles, a slight compression of the service interval but unremarkable. From June 2024 to January 2026 the car covered 6,265 miles across nineteen months, confirming light use and no rapid accumulation that would accelerate wear on drivetrain or suspension components. The absence of advisories across four successive passes suggests the previous keeper addressed consumables proactively. No tester flagged worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, binding calipers, or exhaust emissions breaches at any stage. A buyer should still confirm in person that brake discs and pads retain serviceable thickness, inspect subframes and sills for latent corrosion not visible at test, and verify tyre sidewalls show no age cracking given the low annual mileage. The two-day failure in October 2023 with no defects recorded points to an administrative rejection rather than neglected upkeep. Combined with the clean subsequent history, the record implies disciplined ownership. A pre-purchase inspection remains sensible to validate the DVSA findings on structural integrity and live brake performance.
