2013 Ford Fiesta 1.5L Diesel · FP13 XCK

The vehicle presents as roadworthy following the most recent pass on 16 January 2026 at 99,495 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The January 2026 test pass shows no defects, though a failed attempt on the same date at identical mileage with no recorded defects suggests an administrative or presentational issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. Prior annual tests in January 2025 and January 2024 also returned passes with no advisories, indicating no escalating wear or unresolved mechanical concerns across the three-year window. Mileage has accumulated at a near-typical rate for a 2013 vehicle, rising from 89,859 miles at the January 2024 test to 93,959 miles in January 2025 and 99,495 miles by January 2026. That equates to roughly 4,000 to 5,500 miles per year over the recorded period, below the 7,653 annual average implied by the lifetime figure, pointing to lighter recent use. The DVSA record is sparse and clean, with no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity at any stage, so the data gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean record, as MOT passes with zero advisories do not capture incipient wear such as tired coil springs, minor bush degradation, or surface corrosion beneath sills. The identical-mileage fail and pass on 16 January 2026 warrant a check of the VOSA failure reason code if obtainable, to rule out a clerical anomaly versus a briefly presented defect. Given the car's thirteen-year age, examine brake calipers for binding, assess tyre sidewall condition, and confirm underbody structural integrity where road salt exposure may have begun.
