Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While it is a popu
Check for comprehensive service records to confirm if the suspension work noted in 2024 (ball joints and track rod ends) and 2025 (rear shock absorber) was carried out using quality parts. Given the pattern of brake and tyre advisories in 2023, verify the current condition of the braking system and the age of the tyres. Negotiate the price based on the high mileage relative to the model average and the frequency of MOT failures.
The 1.2L petrol engine is generally economical, fitting into a mid-range insurance group for small cars. Tax will be based on the 2015 CO2 emissions for this specific engine variant. Maintenance costs are typically moderate for Fiestas, though this specific vehicle's history of suspension wear suggests a need for regular underbody checks to avoid repeated MOT failures.
Focus on the suspension and steering; the 2024 MOT failure for the anti-roll bar linkage, suspension arm ball joint, and track rod end indicates significant wear. Check the rear shock absorbers, as a serious fluid leak was recorded in August 2025. Inspect all tyres for cracking or perishing, as this was a recurring issue in both 2023 and 2025.
This blue 2015 Ford Fiesta 1.2L petrol has recorded 91,629 miles, which is notably above the model average. The MOT history shows failures in both 2024 and 2025, specifically concerning suspension components and lighting. Recent records indicate a pass in August 2025, though this followed a failure requiring several repairs.
The Ford Fiesta has a general MOT pass rate of 77.7%, with common failures typically involving headlamps, exhausts, and coil springs.
