2013 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · LD13 JTY

The vehicle presents a remarkably stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 29 May 2025 at 36,390 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car remains in a mechanically sound condition. This ongoing trend of zero failures across the last four years suggests a vehicle that has been maintained well and avoids significant mechanical regressions or recurring structural issues. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old Ford, averaging approximately 2,800 miles per year. Between June 2022 and May 2025, the car covered only 5,476 miles, moving from 30,917 to 36,390 miles. This low usage frequency suggests short-distance urban driving or long periods of stationary. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber components and fluids that can degrade regardless of distance driven. Despite the clean digital record, a physical inspection must focus on components prone to aging in low-mileage vehicles. The buyer should check for cracking or perish in tyre sidewalls, suspension bushes, and engine mounts, as these become brittle over time. Brake calipers should be inspected for binding or corrosion due to infrequent use, and the chassis should be examined for any evidence of surface rust that has not yet reached the threshold of an MOT failure.
