2013 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · N3 NNR

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing results in recent years. The most recent test in July 2025 at 50,819 miles resulted in no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. This follows a period of clean passes in 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the mechanical components have remained within acceptable tolerances without recurring failures. The mileage pattern is notably low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,900 miles per year. Between July 2022 at 44,678 miles and July 2025 at 50,819 miles, the car covered only over 6,000 miles. While this low usage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the infrequent driving intervals can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or fluid breakdown. The failure recorded in July 2023 at 46,601 miles occurred just one week before a successful pass, suggesting a minor issue that was rectified immediately before the re-test. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that suffer from age rather than mileage. Given the low usage, check the tyres for signs of sidewall cracking or perished rubber, which often occurs when a vehicle sits for long periods. Examine the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-mileage cars often develop rust on the rotors. Checking the structural integrity of the rear sills and suspension mounting is also vital to ensure that the age of the vehicle has not introduced significant oxidation despite the low odometer reading.
