2015 FORD FIESTA ZETEC ECONETIC TDCI1.5L DIESEL

The 2015 Ford Fiesta Zetec Econetic TDCi currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 11 March 2026 at 114,524 miles, with zero defects recorded. The maintenance trend over the past three years is broadly stable, with no recurring mechanical or structural failures. A single advisory for slight play in the nearside front track rod end ball joint appeared in June 2024 at 93,519 miles, but this did not recur in subsequent tests, suggesting the component was either replaced or remains within acceptable tolerance. The most recent pass with no faults indicates the vehicle is currently in sound mechanical order. The mileage accumulation of roughly 10,400 miles per year is typical for a diesel supermini of this age. A notable gap exists between the August 2025 failure at 104,394 miles and the March 2026 pass at 114,524 miles, representing approximately 10,130 miles covered in just under seven months. This suggests a period of heavier use following what may have been a quieter spell. The record is otherwise consistent, with no anomalous jumps or suspiciously low annual increments that would raise concerns about mileage tampering or long-term standing. Buyers should still carry out a focused physical inspection despite the clean recent certificate. The repeated advisories for front tyre wear on the edges in 2023 and 2024 point to possible alignment or suspension geometry issues, so check the inner sidewalls of all four tyres for uneven wear and have the tracking and front suspension bushes inspected. The 2024 advisory for track rod end play, even if not repeated, warrants a check of the entire steering rack and inner gaiters. Given the diesel engine and DPF system, verify that the exhaust emissions remain stable under load and that no DPF warning lights are present. Inspect the underside for corrosion, particularly around the rear beam, sills, and brake lines, as these are common failure points on Fiestas of this generation.
