Our Verdict
A sensible option for those seeking a co
The primary point for negotiation is the December 2025 MOT advisory regarding the exhaust leak at the front flexy pipe. As exhaust issues are a common failure point for this model, you should obtain a quote for the repair before finalizing the price. Check that the track rod end and lighting issues from the 2024 failure were professionally resolved.
Verify the service history for this 998cc engine, ensuring that oil changes have been performed at regular intervals. Given the vehicle's age and mileage, check for any evidence of previous bodywork repairs to the white paintwork, particularly around the wheel arches.
The 998cc petrol engine is designed for urban efficiency, typically placing it in a lower insurance group and a competitive road tax bracket. Maintenance costs for the Fiesta are generally kept low due to the widespread availability of parts and technicians familiar with the platform.
Annual costs will primarily consist of fuel, road tax, and routine servicing. Given the current mileage and age, a modest budget for wear-and-tear items like tyres and brakes should be factored into the yearly spend.
Prioritise an inspection of the exhaust system, specifically the front flexy section, to determine the current state of the leak mentioned in the 2025 MOT. Check the condition of all four tyres and the steering components, as the vehicle previously failed on tyre tread and a track rod end ball joint.
Test all exterior lighting functions, specifically the dipswitch, to ensure the 2024 electrical fault was properly fixed. Additionally, check for any signs of coil spring fatigue, as these are listed as a top failure reason for this model across aggregate data.
This white 2016 Ford Fiesta has recorded 68,956 miles as of its last MOT in December 2025. Out of five recorded tests, it has passed four, with one failure in 2024 relating to tyre tread, a dipswitch, and a track rod end. The most recent test passed but highlighted a minor exhaust leak at the front flexy pipe.
This model has an average MOT pass rate of 77.7%, with headlamps and exhausts being the most frequent points of failure.
