2013 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · MF13 XEP

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available testing history. The most recent inspection conducted on 11 July 2025 at 91,096 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety and emissions standards. While there was a recorded failure in July 2024, the immediate pass on the same day suggests the owner addressed the identified faults promptly rather than allowing a trend of neglect to develop. The usage pattern is consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per annum. There is a noticeable jump in mileage between July 2023 (57,671 miles) and July 2024 (79,566 miles), where the car covered over 22,000 miles in a single year. This period of heavy use likely accounts for the failure recorded during that interval, as increased mileage accelerates the wear on rubber components and braking systems. Since that mid-2024 peak, the mileage accumulation has returned to a more moderate pace. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific components that caused the 2024 failure, although the record does not specify the exact defect. Given the age of the Fiesta and the mileage, it is vital to inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for perished rubber or cracking, which are common failure points on this model. You should also check the brake discs for excessive pitting or binding calipers, as lower-mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from surface corrosion if they are not used frequently enough.
