Our Verdict
A sensible option for small-engine buyer
When viewing this specific 1.0L Fiesta, check that the recent absence of MOT defects is reflected in the vehicle's actual condition. Since the 2023 MOT noted worn front brake discs and pads, ask for evidence of when these were last replaced to ensure they aren't nearing the end of their life again.
Given the 2022 failure involving a fractured coil spring, it is worth inspecting the suspension components for any signs of corrosion or premature wear. Always verify that the service history includes regular oil changes, which is vital for the 998cc EcoBoost engines used in this era of Fiesta.
This 998cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, typically placing it in a lower insurance group and tax band suitable for budget-conscious drivers. Fuel economy should be competitive for a small hatchback of this vintage.
Maintenance costs for a Fiesta are generally moderate due to the wide availability of parts. However, you should budget for periodic replacement of consumables like tyres and brakes, which have appeared in this vehicle's MOT history. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance, sit around £1,100-£1,400 depending on annual mileage and driving style.
Focus your inspection on the braking system and tyres. The 2023 MOT record specifically flagged worn front brake discs and thin pads, so check for any pulsation through the brake pedal or grinding noises during test drives. Also, check the tread depth and condition of all four tyres, noting that the nearside rear tyre was previously flagged as being close to the legal limit.
Additionally, inspect the suspension. The vehicle has a recorded history of a fractured nearside rear coil spring and a tyre with exposed cords. While these were passed in subsequent tests, a thorough check of the suspension struts and springs for any signs of damage or uneven wear is a prudent step.
This 2014 black Ford Fiesta features a 998cc petrol engine and has covered 73,705 miles as of its last MOT in November 2025. While the MOT history shows some past issues with tyres, brake components, and a coil spring, the most recent two tests have been passed with no defects recorded. The mileage is slightly higher than the model average of 5,779 miles per year, but remains consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age.
The Ford Fiesta is a high-volume model with an average MOT pass rate of 77.7% across the fleet, with common failure points including headlamps, exhausts, and coil springs.
