Our Verdict

This 2008 Ford Fiesta offers decent value but requires careful inspection due to recurring mechanical issues. A cautious buyer could proceed with a thorough check of critical components.

Prioritise checking the front brake discs, which have shown wear in multiple MOTs. Inspect the rear coil springs for corrosion and assess the condition of all tyres, as both rear tyres have been near the legal limit. Verify the CV boot on the offside front drive shaft is intact. Negotiate based on the 2025 MOT's multiple failures and consider a pre-purchase inspection to assess hidden damage. Look for consistent service records to confirm maintenance history.
