2013 Ford Fiesta Zetec 1.2L Petrol · SH13 UPS

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy profile, following a clean pass on 13 June 2026 at 119,848 miles. This recent result indicates a stable maintenance trend, despite a recorded failure on 19 May 2026 just 22 miles prior. Since the May 2026 failure listed no defects upon retest, it likely represented an administrative technicality or a minor non-compliance that was rectified immediately, rather than a systemic mechanical or structural failure. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,200 miles per year. The data shows a steady accumulation of use, moving from 81,064 miles in August 2022 to nearly 120,000 miles in 2026. A notable gap of 17,427 miles recorded between February 2024 and February 2025 suggests a period of higher usage during that interval. This consistent mileage generallys against long periods of standing, which ensures that the drivetrain and braking components have been subjected to regular movement and friction application. While the history lacks recurring advisories for corrosion or suspension wear, the high-mileage context necessitates a physical inspection of age-related components. A buyer should specifically examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue, as these often degrade after the six-figure mark. Given the clean MOT record, checking the brake system for any binding calipers and verifying the thickness of the brake discs is essential to ensure the previous owner maintained the vehicle beyond the minimum annual testing requirements.
