2015 Ford Fiesta Base Tdci 1.5L Diesel · BF15 RHA

Tyre wear has been the most recurrent issue flagged on this 2015 Ford Fiesta, with front and rear tyres repeatedly recorded as close to the legal limit in 2019 and again on the front pair in 2020; however, the vehicle has enjoyed three consecutive clean MOTs – the latest on 15 September 2026 – indicating that no further tyre or brake defects have been noted since those advisories. At 112,986 miles the car averages just over 10 000 miles per year, a mileage rate that sits squarely within normal usage for a model of this age. The MOT schedule shows no prolonged gaps, with tests roughly every twelve months, suggesting the odometer readings are credible and that wear on high‑usage components such as brakes, suspension bushings and steering joints will be commensurate with a typical mid‑life Ford Fiesta. Prospective buyers should give the tyres a thorough visual and tactile inspection: confirm that tread depth exceeds 1.6 mm on all four wheels, look for sidewall cracks, and feel for any vibration or pulsation at speeds above 50 mph that could signal uneven wear, mis‑alignment or worn suspension components. Since the front brake disc was noted as worn in 2019, a measurement of disc thickness and a check for any lateral run‑out or brake pedal judder are advisable; excessive disc wear would usually be accompanied by a higher‑pitched squeal or a spongy pedal under hard braking. Finally, verify that all external lamps, particularly the stop lamp, illuminate correctly and that the associated wiring shows no corrosion or loose connections – the only recorded failure in 2019 was a non‑functioning stop lamp. While the MOT record does not highlight structural rust, a visual survey of the wheel arches, sills and under‑body for any signs of corrosion, and a brief test‑drive for steering pull or excessive play in the steering wheel, will help confirm that the vehicle’s fundamental chassis and suspension remain sound.
