2013 Ford Fiesta 1.5L Diesel · WH63 WGU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, though the MOT record is currently out of date. The most recent test on 25 May 2022 at 152,614 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a contradictory failure on the same day that also listed no defects. This suggests a potential administrative error or a minor technical issue that was rectified immediately before the retest. Since that last pass over four years ago, the vehicle has operated without a documented safety inspection, which increases the risk of undetected mechanical wear or structural corrosion. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 11,740 miles per annum. The data shows a significant increase in usage between June 2019 (61,686 miles) and June 2020 (88,576 miles), where the car covered over 26,000 miles in a single year. Another period of heavy use occurred between 2020 and May 2022, with an additional 64,000 miles recorded. This high-mileage interval places considerable strain on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking systems, which require more frequent scrutiny than lower-mile counterparts. A buyer must prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and underside for structural rust, particularly around the arches and sills. Given the 152,000-mile mark, the inspector should check for play in the suspension arms, worn shock absorbers, and thinning brake discs. Because there is no MOT data from 2022, there is no evidence regarding the current state of the exhaust emissions or fluid leaks that may have developed since the vehicle last passed its official test.
