Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the mileage
Focus your attention on the wheels and suspension. The repetition of 'distorted road wheels' across the last two MOT tests suggests the vehicle may have encountered significant potholes or kerbing. You should check for any vibration through the steering wheel during a test drive at motorway speeds.
Ensure the service history documents any repairs to the steering system following the 2025 failure regarding the track rod end lock nut. Negotiate the price if the distorted wheels have not been replaced or refurbished, as this can lead to premature tyre wear and alignment issues.
The 998cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency and meets Euro 6 AG standards, ensuring it remains compliant with most UK clean air zones. Insurance groups for this specific engine variant are typically low, making it an economical choice for urban commuting.
Annual costs will be primarily driven by fuel and routine servicing. Given the model's aggregate data, be mindful of potential future costs related to headlamps or exhaust components, which are common failure points for this model.
Specifically inspect the road wheels for bends or cracks, as the MOT history notes distortion on the offside front, offside rear, and nearside rear wheels. Check the current tyre condition, particularly the inner edges, referencing the 2025 failure for inner edge wear and sidewall damage.
Verify the steering feel and alignment to ensure the previously loose track rod end nut has been properly secured and has not caused premature wear to the steering rack or associated linkages.
This 2019 beige Ford Fiesta has covered 34,547 miles, which is below the model's average annual mileage. The MOT history is mixed, featuring clean records in 2023 and 2024, but a failure in 2025 and multiple advisories regarding distorted wheels in 2026.
With an average MOT pass rate of 77.7% across 1.5 million vehicles, the Fiesta is generally robust, though common failures often involve headlamps and exhaust systems.

Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2019 model year cars.
- 1.0 EcoBoost Wet Belt DegradationSerious
Early Mk8 1.0 EcoBoost engines still use the oil-bath timing-belt setup that sheds material if servicing or oil quality is wrong, eventually starving the engine of oil pressure.
- Coolant Bottle, Hose and Thermostat LeaksSerious
Expansion tanks, hoses and thermostat housings can leak coolant gradually, and ignored low-level warnings risk overheating and head-gasket or engine damage.
