AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle's most recent MOT history shows a stable trend of passing tests, though a failure occurred immediately prior to the latest successful result. The tester recorded a failure on 19 February 2026, which was rectified to achieve a pass on 20 February 2026. While no specific defect details were provided for this failure, the sequence indicates a minor issue was identified and resolved within a 24-hour window. The previous three consecutive tests in February 2023, 2024, and 2025 all resulted in passes with no recorded defects or advisories. The recorded mileage of 113,689 miles over a 15-year period averages approximately 7,579 miles per year. This represents a consistent usage pattern typical for a vehicle of this age. The data shows no evidence of sudden mileage spikes or long periods of inactivity between the annual February test dates. The continuity of the MOT record from 2023 through to early 2026 suggests regular annual inspections have been conducted. Because the 2026 failure did not specify the component involved, a physical inspection is necessary to identify what caused the initial rejection. A buyer should focus on common wear items for a Ford Fiesta of this age, specifically checking the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs. Given the age of the vehicle, inspecting the underside for structural corrosion and checking the integrity of the exhaust system is also advisable. Examining the tyre tread and brake pad thickness would provide further clarity on the current state of consumables. buying_score: 72 risk_level: Low.

Our Verdict

Proceed with confidence, but verify the reason for the recent minor failure. This 2011 Ford Fiesta diesel shows a consistent MOT pass record over the last several years.

When viewing this vehicle, ask the seller for clarification regarding the MOT failure on 19 February 2026. Although no specific defects were listed in the summary provided, understanding what caused the failure at 113,687 miles is essential for due diligence.

Given this is a 1.4L diesel model, ensure you check for any signs of heavy idling or short-trip usage, which can affect diesel components. Verify that the service history aligns with the recorded mileage, particularly regarding timing belt intervals which are critical for this engine type.

As a 1.4L diesel, this Fiesta is designed for efficiency on longer journeys, likely placing it in a moderate insurance group. Fuel economy should be competitive for a car of this age, though actual figures will depend on driving style and maintenance.

Annual running costs will be influenced by the vehicle's age and mileage. Expect typical maintenance costs for a high-mileage diesel, including regular oil changes and potential exhaust or tyre replacements, which are common failure points for this model across the wider dataset.

Focus your inspection on the areas identified as common failure points for the Ford Fiesta model: headlamps, exhaust systems, and tyre condition. Even though the 2026 MOT pass recorded no defects, these components are statistically more likely to require attention on this model.

Check the tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity, as well as the exhaust system for any signs of corrosion. Given the 113,689 miles recorded, also inspect the suspension components and brake wear, as these are standard wear items that accumulate with higher mileage.

This black 1.4L diesel Ford Fiesta (JK61CAM) has covered 113,689 miles since its first registration in September 2011. The MOT history shows five recorded tests, with a recent failure in February 2026 followed immediately by a pass. While the mileage is higher than the model average, the lack of recorded defects in the most recent pass is a notable data point.

Across 1,514,009 analysed vehicles, the Ford Fiesta shows an average MOT pass rate of 77.6%, with common issues relating to headlamps, exhausts, and tyres.
