Our Verdict
A sensible purchase for those seeking a high-mileage diesel commuter. The recent MOT history is clean, though the mileage is significantly higher than the model average.
Given the high mileage of 107,259 miles, your primary focus should be on the service history to ensure the 1.6L diesel engine has received regular oil changes. At this age and mileage, check if the timing belt (cam belt) and water pump have been replaced recently, as these are critical maintenance items for this engine variant.
When negotiating, consider the mileage; while the MOT history is clean, the vehicle has been driven much more than the typical Fiesta in this dataset. Ask for evidence of recent work on the suspension or braking components, even if they haven't caused an MOT failure yet.
As a 1.6L diesel, this Fiesta is designed for efficiency on longer journeys, though tax and insurance will depend on the specific insurance group assigned to this 2011 model. Fuel economy should be relatively competitive for a vehicle of this era.
Maintenance costs for a Ford Fiesta are generally considered moderate due to the wide availability of parts. However, with mileage exceeding 100,000, you should budget for potential wear-and-tear items such as suspension bushings, exhaust components, or tyres, which are common failure points for this model across the wider fleet.
Inspect the vehicle's exterior and lighting thoroughly; while this specific car had no defects in its 2025 MOT, headlamps are a top failure reason for the Fiesta model aggregate. Check the condition of the tyres and the exhaust system, as these are also identified as common MOT failure points for this model.
Under the bonnet, look for any signs of fluid leaks around the engine. Given the high mileage, also check the condition of the underside for excessive corrosion, even though no specific structural failures have been recorded in the recent MOT history provided.
This 2011 black Ford Fiesta 1.6 diesel has covered 107,259 miles since its first registration in September 2011. While the mileage is substantially above the model's average annual figure of 5,839, the vehicle has secured four consecutive MOT passes since 2022. The most recent test in September 2025 shows a pass with no defects recorded.
The Ford Fiesta shows an average MOT pass rate of 77.6% across the 1.5 million vehicles analysed, with common issues relating to headlamps, exhausts, and tyres.
