Our Verdict
Strong recommendation for buyers seeking
Given the exceptionally low mileage, the primary focus should be on the service history. Verify that oil and filter changes were carried out at regular intervals regardless of the low distance covered, as engine oil can degrade over time. Check the health of the battery, as vehicles with very low annual usage can suffer from premature battery failure.
Negotiate based on the immediate need for new front tyres, as the most recent MOT highlighted perishing. Ensure that the service book confirms the vehicle has been kept in a condition consistent with its low mileage.
The 998cc engine is designed for efficiency and meets Euro 6 AG standards, ensuring it is compliant with UK ULEZ and clean air zones. Fuel economy for this engine variant is typically strong, and the Fiesta generally sits in a lower insurance group, making it an affordable option for new drivers or urban commuters.
Annual costs will be kept low by the small engine size and tax band. Typical maintenance for this model is straightforward, though the low usage of this specific car may mean some rubber components require replacing due to age rather than wear.
Inspect the tyres carefully; the November 2025 MOT recorded that both nearside and offside front tyres were slightly damaged, cracking, or perishing. This is a common occurrence in low-mileage vehicles where the rubber ages before the tread wears down. Additionally, check the offside rear shock absorber for signs of oil leaks, following the 'light misting' advisory from November 2024.
While this vehicle has not experienced them, be aware that aggregate data for the Fiesta shows headlamps, exhaust systems, and coil springs as common failure points. A quick visual check of the suspension and lighting is advised to ensure no new issues have developed since the last test.
This red 2018 Ford Fiesta 1.0L petrol has a consistent MOT history with five passes and zero failures. With only 14,600 miles recorded as of November 2025, it has been used significantly less than the model average. Recent MOT advisories suggest age-related wear rather than high-use degradation.
The Ford Fiesta has an average MOT pass rate of 77.7%, with common failure points typically including headlamps and exhaust components.
