Our Verdict
This is a highly recommended example of a Ford Fiesta due to its exceptionally low mileage and clean MOT history. It presents a much lower risk profile than the average model in this category.
When viewing this Fiesta, focus on confirming that the low mileage is consistent with its age and that there is evidence of regular servicing to match its low usage. While the MOT history shows no recorded defects, you should still check the service book for oil change intervals, particularly for the 1.0L EcoBoost engine.
Negotiate based on the vehicle's low mileage and the fact that it has avoided the common MOT failure points seen in this model, such as headlamps, exhausts, or tyre issues. Ensure the tyres have plenty of tread, as the aggregate data suggests tyres are a common failure point for Fiestas.
With a small 998cc petrol engine, this vehicle is likely to sit in a lower insurance group and benefit from efficient fuel economy, making it an economical choice for urban driving. Tax bands for this engine size are generally affordable.
Maintenance costs for a Fiesta are typically moderate, though you should budget for standard consumables like tyres and brakes. Given the low mileage, you may encounter fewer mechanical repairs than a high-mileage equivalent, though the estimated annual running cost remains subject to driving habits and insurance profiles.
While this specific vehicle has no recorded MOT failures, you should inspect the headlamps and exhaust system, as these are the most frequent failure reasons for the Ford Fiesta model according to aggregate data. Check the condition of the tyres and ensure they meet legal depth requirements.
Because this is a 2016 model with a small-capacity engine, it is also wise to inspect the engine bay for any signs of fluid leaks and check the condition of the drive belt. Even with a clean MOT history, a physical inspection of the braking components is always recommended.
This 2016 grey Ford Fiesta with the 998cc petrol engine has covered just 37,062 miles since its first registration in March 2016. The MOT history is notable for having zero defects recorded across four consecutive tests between 2022 and 2025. Given the model's aggregate data shows an average annual mileage of 5,839, this specific vehicle has been driven significantly less than the typical specimen.
The Ford Fiesta has an average MOT pass rate of 77.6% across the 1.5 million vehicles analysed, with common failures relating to headlamps, exhausts, and tyres.
