2013 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · ML13 CYP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While it passed its most recent test in June 2025 at 94,538 miles, this followed a failure at the same mileage due to multiple mechanical and structural de-related issues. The most recent failure involved an offside front track rod end with excessive play, which was addressed prior to the pass, suggesting that suspension components are reaching the end of life. At 94,538 miles, the car has averaged approximately 7,272 miles per year, which is consistent with typical UK usage for a car of this age. The data shows a steady progression, with roughly 12,000 miles covered between July 2023 and July 2024, and another 9,400 miles covered in the year since the previous test. This consistent mileage suggests the vehicle is used regularly, which often explains the gradual degradation of consumable and structural components noted in the records. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front sub-frame, which has been flagged for corrosion in both 2024 and 2025. While the examiners have described the corrosion as not seriously weakened or excessive, the persistence of this issue across multiple years requires monitoring to ensure it does not compromise the structural integrity of the 차량. Additionally, the history shows recurring issues with uneven tyre wear, specifically on the inner shoulder during the 2025 test, which often indicates an alignment problem or worn suspension bushes. The braking system also requires attention following the 2024 failure for scored front discs and dangerously thin brake pads. Given the recent replacement of the track rod end and the ongoing history of tyre wear, the buyer should check the remaining front suspension components for further play and ensure the artwork geometry is correctly set. The offside front tyre, noted as being near the legal limit in the latest test, will likely require immediate replacement before the next inspection.
