Our Verdict
A highly recommended purchase. This blue 2017 Fiesta boasts exceptionally low mileage and a remarkably clean MOT record, making it a standout example of this model.
Given the very low mileage for a 2017 vehicle, your primary focus should be on the service history. Ensure the oil has been changed at regular intervals even if the annual mileage was low, as stagnant oil can lead to sludge buildup. Check for any signs of 'sitting'—such as flat spots on tyres or battery degradation—which can happen with low-use cars.
Negotiate based on the remaining tyre tread and brake pad life. While the 2022 MOT noted worn inner tyres and pitted discs, the most recent tests are clean; however, verifying the current condition of the rubber will ensure you aren't facing an immediate replacement cost after purchase.
The 1.6L petrol engine provides a good balance of performance and efficiency for a city car. You can expect moderate fuel economy, though it will be higher than the smaller 1.0L EcoBoost variants. Insurance for the Fiesta is generally affordable as it is one of the most common cars on UK roads, keeping parts costs low.
Annual costs will be kept down by the vehicle's low wear-and-tear levels. Maintenance should be limited to standard annual servicing and consumables, provided the low-mileage usage has been paired with consistent maintenance.
Inspect the tyres specifically for uneven wear on the inner edges, as this was highlighted in the April 2022 MOT (Nearside and Offside Front). This could indicate a need for wheel alignment, so check if the car tracks straight during a test drive.
Examine the brake discs for any remaining pitting or scoring, referencing the 2022 advisory. While the 2025 MOT was clean, a visual check through the alloys will confirm if the discs have been replaced or simply cleaned up. Finally, check the blue paintwork for any fading or stone chips common on motorway-driven cars, though the low mileage suggests this should be minimal.
This 1.6L petrol Ford Fiesta is in excellent condition relative to its age, having covered only 30,524 miles by October 2025. The MOT history is impressively clean, with three consecutive passes without any defects recorded. While there were minor advisory notes regarding tyres and brake discs in 2022, the subsequent clean sheets suggest these were addressed or have not recurred.
The Ford Fiesta is widely regarded as a reliable and robust supermini, though specific aggregate data for this exact variant is not provided here.
