Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the vehicle
Pay close attention to the electrical systems. Given the history of failures with the nearside front indicators and rear stop lamps, ensure all exterior lighting is functioning correctly. You should also verify that the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is fully operational, as this was a point of failure in 2026.
Request documentation for the repair of the central lower gearbox mounting. Ensure the work was carried out by a qualified professional and that the part used was of a suitable standard. Use these recorded failures as a point of negotiation regarding the vehicle's price.
The 998cc petrol engine is designed for urban efficiency, which typically translates to lower road tax and a competitive insurance group. Maintenance for this model is generally straightforward due to the high volume of parts available in the UK.
Annual costs will include the mandatory MOT, road tax, and routine servicing. Given the vehicle's age and mileage, you should budget for wear-and-tear items such as tyres and brake pads. The estimated annual running cost is approximately £1,100-£1,400.
Directly inspect the gearbox mounting area for any signs of excessive vibration or noise during gear transitions, referencing the March 2026 failure. Check the dashboard for any active TPMS warning lights to ensure the previous malfunction was permanently fixed.
Perform a full lighting check, specifically focusing on the nearside front indicators and the rear stop lamps, as these have both failed in recent years. Additionally, check the condition of the headlamps and exhaust, as these are common failure points for the Fiesta model according to aggregate data.
This silver 2016 Ford Fiesta 1.0L has recorded 67,092 miles, which is above the model's average annual mileage. The MOT history shows two failures in the last three tests, primarily involving lighting and a tyre pressure monitoring system malfunction. A more significant mechanical defect regarding the central lower gearbox mounting was recorded and resolved in March 2026.
The Ford Fiesta has a respectable aggregate MOT pass rate of 77.7%, though it is frequently flagged for headlamp, exhaust, and coil spring issues.
