2013 Ford Fiesta 1.5L Diesel · FX13 OJF

The 2013 Ford Fiesta presents a clean and stable maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT pass recorded on 24 March 2026 at 86,624 miles showing zero defects. The vehicle has consistently passed its annual tests without advisories or failures, indicating diligent upkeep and no recurring mechanical or structural concerns. This is a strong record for a thirteen-year-old supermini. The mileage progression is steady and typical for its age. Between the March 2025 test at 80,845 miles and the March 2026 test at 86,624 miles, the car covered approximately 5,779 miles in twelve months, aligning with the overall average of roughly 6,663 miles per year. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in accumulation that would suggest long periods of disuse or odometer anomalies. The record is sparse in the best possible sense, with no defects noted across multiple consecutive tests. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should still conduct a thorough physical inspection. The Fiesta's age and mileage mean that consumable components such as tyres, brake discs, pads, and suspension bushes may be approaching replacement intervals even if they have not yet triggered a test failure. Pay close attention to the condition of the exhaust system, coil springs, and subframe mounting points for any early signs of corrosion, particularly if the vehicle has spent time in areas with heavy road salt use. A short test drive will reveal whether the clutch, gearbox, and steering operate smoothly, while a check for uneven tyre wear can uncover hidden suspension or alignment issues. The absence of MOT defects is reassuring, but it does not guarantee that every component is in perfect condition. Treat the clean record as a positive baseline, not a substitute for a hands-on inspection by a qualified mechanic.
