Our Verdict
A recommended purchase for those seeking
The primary point for negotiation is the tyres. MOT records from 2024, 2025, and 2026 show a persistent pattern of cracking and wear, with the most recent test flagging three tyres as being close to the legal limit. Ensure a full set of new tyres is fitted before purchase.
Beyond the tyres, request the full service history to confirm that oil and filter changes have been performed at the required intervals, as low-mileage vehicles still require time-based maintenance. Verify that the 1.0L engine is running smoothly and check for any signs of oil leaks during a cold start.
The 998cc engine is designed for efficiency, keeping fuel costs low for city driving. As a Euro 6 petrol vehicle, it avoids most urban emission charges and falls into a relatively affordable tax bracket.
Insurance for the Ford Fiesta is typically competitive due to its popularity and available parts. Including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic servicing, the estimated annual running cost is approximately £900-£1,200.
Prioritise a physical inspection of all four tyres. The July 2026 MOT specifically notes that the nearside front, nearside rear, and offside front tyres are worn close to the legal limit; the history shows these tyres have been flagged for perishing or cracking since 2024.
Additionally, check the headlamps and exhaust system. While this specific vehicle has not failed for these items, aggregate data from over 1.5 million Fiestas identifies these as top failure reasons for the model. Check the coil springs for any signs of corrosion or fractures, another common weak point for this vehicle type.
This white 2018 Ford Fiesta has recorded 27,386 miles as of July 2026, which is significantly lower than the model average. While it has passed every MOT test since registration, the history reveals a recurring issue with tyre condition. The vehicle is Euro 6 compliant and powered by a 998cc petrol engine.
The Ford Fiesta has a respectable average MOT pass rate of 77.7% across a large data set of over 1.5 million vehicles.
