Our Verdict
Recommended. This 2017 Ford Fiesta prese
Focus on the current tyre condition, as the May 2026 MOT recorded both front tyres at 2mm. This provides a clear point for price negotiation or a request for replacement before purchase.
Ensure the service history correlates with the recorded mileage increases, which have been steady at approximately 6,000 to 7,000 miles per year. Check that the windscreen wiper failure from 2024 was resolved and that the current wipers are effective.
The 1084cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency and lower insurance costs. As a small-capacity engine, it typically falls into a lower tax bracket and insurance group, making it an economical choice for urban driving.
Typical maintenance costs for this model are generally moderate, though buyers should budget for the common wear-and-tear items identified in aggregate model data, such as exhaust and suspension components.
Inspect the front tyres immediately, as they were flagged as worn (2mm) in the most recent MOT. This is the most pressing maintenance item identified in the vehicle's history.
While this specific vehicle has not failed for these items, you should check the condition of the coil springs and the exhaust system, as these are common failure points across the wider Fiesta population. Additionally, verify that all headlamps are functioning correctly, as these are frequently cited in MOT failures for this model.
This white 1.1L petrol Fiesta has covered 53,105 miles, which is consistent with the average annual mileage for this model. The MOT record shows a high pass rate, with only one minor failure for a windscreen wiper in 2024. The most recent test in May 2026 noted that both front tyres are nearing the legal limit.
The Ford Fiesta has a 77.7% average MOT pass rate, with common failures often related to headlamps and exhaust systems.
