2013 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · ML13 FSC

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 11 August 2025 at 99,877 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently cleared the testing process following immediate failures in previous years. The lack of recorded advisories in the two most recent tests suggests that the owner is proactive in addressing issues as they arise rather than allowing minor wear or mechanical faults to accumulate. The mileage profile is consistent with a typical 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. Between August 2023 at 87,501 miles and August 2024 at 93,895 miles, the car covered 6,394 miles, followed by another 5,982 miles leading to the August 2025 test. This steady, low-intensity usage indicates regular operation which generally reduces the strain on the drivetrain components, clutch, and suspension bushings compared to high-mileage commuter vehicles. A buyer should investigate the specific reasons for the failures recorded in 2024 and 2025, as the provided data does not specify the mechanical defects that triggered these rejections. While the vehicle passed subsequently, recurring failures suggest potential intermittent issues with consumable items such as light bulbs, tyre pressure, or exhaust emissions components. Given the age of the Ford Fiesta, a physical inspection of the chassis for corrosion on the sills and wheel arches is essential to ensure the structural integrity remains sound despite the clean MOT history.
