2013 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · MJ63 VGZ

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently good, as the most recent MOT of 79,133 miles was passed on 2025-08-14 with no defects. However, the maintenance pattern indicates a clear trend of worsening condition, as the vehicle has failed twice on the same date of 2025-02-27, which is 100 days prior to the most recent test. This suggests that basic upkeep was skipped during the ownership period, leading to accelerated wear on critical components. The mileage history reveals a significant gap in recorded data, with the most recent test occurring on 2025-08-14 at 79,133 miles. This date is 13 years old, and the vehicle has only recently passed a test at this mileage, indicating that the owner has likely driven the car for over a decade without a MOT. The record shows a sharp drop-off in mileage from 79,133 to 77,568 miles on 2025-02-27, followed by a return to 72,952 miles on 2024-04-24. This rapid accumulation of miles between the two most recent tests suggests that the vehicle has been driven at a very high speed for a long time, which is a major risk factor. Based on the recurring faults and the pattern of poor maintenance, the buyer should inspect the suspension system, specifically checking for bushings and coil springs, as well as the brake discs and calipers. The vehicle also requires a thorough check for exhaust emissions and structural integrity, as the history of two failed tests indicates a high probability of corrosion or wear on these components. Given the rapid mileage accumulation and the history of two failed tests, the vehicle is not roadworthy and requires immediate professional assessment to prevent further damage.
