2013 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · SH13 RHU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of improvement. The most recent inspection on 15 April 2025 at 79,987 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the car is currently in a good mechanical state. While the history shows instances of failure in previous years, the subsequent passes without advisories suggest that the owner is proactive in addressing identified faults before they escalate further. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,150 miles per year. Between April 2023 and April 2024, the car covered 5,557 miles, while it clocked another 5,448 miles in the following year leading up to the 2025 test. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often leads to dry rot in rubber components or seized brake-related corrosion in low-mileage cars. The buyer should note the failures recorded in April 2023 and April 2024, where the vehicle failed just one or two miles into the test. This pattern often indicates minor, easily rectified items such as bulbs, wiper blades, or minor fluid leaks rather than deep structural mechanical failure. Because the two most recent tests showed no advisories, the physical inspection should focus on standard wear for a thirteen-year-old Fiesta, specifically checking for surface rust on the sills and rear arches, alongside the condition of the suspension bushes and tyre mounts.
