2013 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · SF13 YLL

The 2013 Ford Fiesta passed the May 29 2026 MOT at 92,136 miles with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness, but the maintenance trend is not stable; a failure at 92,132 miles just days earlier revealed recurring suspension faults that may have been remedied before the latest test. The recorded mileage of 92,136 after 13 years averages 7,087 miles per year, which is typical for the model, yet the jump from 51,532 miles in the 2021 test to 92,136 in 2026 shows accelerated use of roughly 8,000 miles per year, indicating possible increased driving or extended periods of inactivity. Recurrent front suspension arm ball joint wear and anti‑roll bar linkage play appear in tests from 2022 through 2026, suggesting persistent suspension component degradation that a buyer should inspect, along with tyre condition, brake binding, and any signs of structural rust such as the reported exhaust flexi section deterioration. Additional concerns include the 2021 rear axle insecurity, the 2022 off‑side tyre bulge, and multiple inoperative lamps, all of which merit close verification of axle mounting, tyre integrity, and lighting systems before final purchase.
