Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Focus on verifying the service history to ensure the low mileage has not led to neglected fluid changes or timing belt replacements, which are critical for this engine. Check for any signs of corrosion on the chassis, as MOT tests only capture specific failure points.
Given the lack of recorded MOT defects, negotiate based on the age of the tyres and battery rather than mechanical failures. Ensure that the low annual usage has not resulted in perished rubber seals or gaskets.
The 1.4L petrol engine provides a balance of city drivability and motorway capability. It typically falls into a moderate insurance group and tax band for its era, keeping fixed costs manageable.
Maintenance costs for the Fiesta are generally low due to the widespread availability of parts and simple mechanical layout. Estimated annual costs include fuel, road tax, and basic servicing.
While the MOT history for KT55GXW shows no defects, be mindful of common Fiesta weak points such as coil springs and exhaust components, which are frequent failure points across the model range. Inspect the headlamps for clarity and function, as these are also common aggregate failure reasons for this model.
Check the black paintwork for fading or scratches typical of older vehicles. Additionally, perform a cold start to ensure the engine fires up smoothly, as low-mileage cars can sometimes suffer from fuel system stagnation.
This black 2006 Ford Fiesta 1.4L petrol has a recorded mileage of 61,502 miles, which is well below the average for its age. The MOT history from 2022 to 2026 shows five consecutive passes with no defects recorded. It represents a rare example of a 20-year-old vehicle with such a consistent testing record.
The Fiesta has a general MOT pass rate of 77.6% across over 1.5 million vehicles, suggesting a generally reliable platform.
