2013 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · LF63 FAA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a successful MOT on 12 March 2026 at 70,371 miles. This most recent test showed no defects, indicating that previous mechanical issues have been addressed. The maintenance trend shows a temporary decline in suspension integrity between 2024 and 2025, but the subsequent pass in 2025 and the clean sheet in 2026 suggest the vehicle is currently in a well-maintained state regarding its primary components. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2013 model, averaging approximately 5,400 miles per year. The data shows consistent, gradual increases in mileage, such as the 2,224-mile increment between the March 2024 and March 2025 tests. This pattern suggests regular, light usage rather than long periods of stagnation. The absence of sudden mileage spikes or gaps in the testing timeline indicates a consistent ownership pattern and predictable wear on the drivetrain and consumables. A buyer should focus on the front suspension system during a physical inspection. The MOT history shows a progression of wear in the front suspension arm ball joints, moving from slight play in March 2024 to an official failure for excessive wear on both the nearside and offside joints in March 2025. While the 2026 test passed without issue, verifying the tightness of the steering and the condition of the suspension bushes remains a prudent step. The braking system also warrants a check. The July 2019 test flagged imbalanced front brakes, and although this was resolved, it is worth inspecting the brake discs and calipers for even wear or signs of binding. The 2016 record regarding low tyre tread suggests the previous owner occasionally deferred basic consumable maintenance, so a thorough check of the current tyre tread depth and overall rubber condition is advised to ensure they match the vehicle's low-mileage status.
