Our Verdict
This 2018 Ford EcoSport is a solid find with a clean record of consecutive first-time MOT passes and remarkably low mileage for its age. Aside from a few tyre and wheel advisories noted in late 2024 that warrant a quick visual check, this diesel compact SUV presents very well.
When inspecting this EcoSport, verify that the four tyres and the nearside front alloy wheel noted in the September 2024 MOT advisories have been properly addressed or replaced. Check the service book for regular oil changes, as the 1.5-litre EcoBlue diesel engine relies heavily on clean lubrication for the timing belt and turbocharger longevity. Use the 2024 advisory history as a helpful negotiation point if any of the rubber or wheel issues remain unresolved.
Equipped with the 1.5-litre diesel engine, this EcoSport should deliver respectable fuel economy well into the upper 50s or low 60s miles per gallon on longer runs, making it economical for commuters. Road tax will sit at standard rates for post-2017 diesel vehicles, and insurance falls into a modest group for compact SUVs. Typical annual maintenance should remain manageable thanks to the car's low mileage and healthy mechanical history.
Pay close attention to the tyres and wheels, specifically referencing the September 2024 MOT advisory which pointed out cracking and perishing on both rear tyres, edge wear and cracking on the offside front tyre, and a slightly distorted nearside front road wheel. Inspect the alloy wheels for any unseen curb damage or slow air leaks. Finally, listen for any suspension rattles during a test drive, as speed bumps can take a toll on front suspension components.
First registered in October 2018, this black Ford EcoSport features a 1499cc diesel engine and has covered just 38,008 miles by its October 2025 MOT test. Its MOT history is spotless with zero recorded failures across five tests, demonstrating that previous owners have kept on top of maintenance. The mileage progression is consistent, averaging roughly 5,400 miles per year, putting it well below the UK national average.
While specific aggregate model data is not listed, this individual example's flawless MOT pass rate indicates strong fundamental durability when properly maintained.
