Our Verdict
Exercise caution with this vehicle. Whil
The primary concern for this vehicle is the structural corrosion listed in the February 2026 MOT. You should have a qualified mechanic inspect the front sub-frame and rear axle mounts to determine if the corrosion is superficial or if it will require expensive welding or replacement in the near future.
Additionally, the recorded 'slight free play' in the steering rack and worn axle swivel pins and bushes suggest wear and tear that exceeds typical maintenance. Use these data points to negotiate the price, as these components may require attention soon to maintain safety and handling standards.
The 1.2L petrol engine is designed for efficiency, typically offering low fuel consumption for city driving. Insurance groups for the 2015 Fiesta are generally affordable, and the vehicle falls into a standard tax bracket for its age and engine size.
However, typical maintenance costs for this specific car are likely to be higher than average. The presence of corrosion on the exhaust and chassis, alongside steering and suspension wear, suggests that the annual budget for repairs will need to be higher than for a cleaner example of this model.
Prioritise a thorough underside inspection. Specifically, look for the corrosion mentioned in the 2026 MOT on the front sub-frame, rear axle, and suspension component mounting areas. Check the exhaust system for the corrosion noted in the most recent test.
Test the steering wheel for the 'slight free play' recorded in February 2026 and inspect the rear tyres for the cracking or perishing mentioned in the MOT history. Finally, verify that the front fog lights, which were inoperative during the last test, are now functioning correctly.
This silver 2015 Ford Fiesta has recorded 82,232 miles, which is above the model average. The MOT history reveals a concerning trend of increasing corrosion, progressing from general underside notes in 2025 to specific corrosion on the front sub-frame, rear axle, and suspension mounts in 2026. A recent failure in February 2026 required the replacement of brake pads and discs.
The Ford Fiesta has an average MOT pass rate of 77.7%, with common failure points often including headlamps and exhaust systems.
