2013 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · WR13 VCD

The 2013 Ford Fiesta presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile, with the most recent test on 7 October 2025 at 165,274 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. Across the five available MOT entries from 2021 to 2025, the vehicle passed every time with no advisories or failures logged. The maintenance trend shows no worsening faults and no recurring mechanical concerns flagged by testers. The recorded mileage of 165,274 against a 13-year lifespan equates to roughly 12,700 miles per year, which sits high for a small hatchback of this age and points to consistent daily use rather than long idle periods. The gap between the 2023 test on 5 June at 146,473 miles and the 2024 test on 9 October at 163,420 miles shows around 17,000 miles covered in sixteen months, a slightly elevated but unremarkable rate. Prior to that, annual increments from 2021 to 2023 stayed near 5,000 miles, then jumped; the sparse five-entry history gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the high cumulative mileage and the age of original components. The MOT record shows no corrosion or structural integrity issues, yet test stations only examine visible surfaces. Drivetrain mounts and exhaust emissions hardware warrant a hands-on check for fatigue not captured in a pass result. Given the absence of any advisories across four years, prior owners appear to have kept the car to a road-legal standard at minimum. The clean sheet offers reasonable assurance, but the 165k mileage means wear on clutch, dampers, and wheel bearings is likely present despite no tester flags.
