Our Verdict

A highly recommended purchase for those seeking a low-mileage, reliable city car. This specific 2016 Ford Fiesta has an exceptionally clean history and has been driven significantly less than the UK average.

Given the extremely low mileage, your primary focus should be on ensuring the vehicle has been serviced regularly. Low-mileage cars can sometimes suffer from 'short-trip syndrome,' where the engine doesn't always reach optimal operating temperatures, potentially leading to carbon buildup. Ask for a detailed service history to confirm that oil changes have been carried out at appropriate intervals despite the low usage.

When negotiating, check the condition of rubber components like tyres and wiper blades. Even if they have plenty of tread, age-related perishing can occur on vehicles that sit idle for long periods. Ensure the service book reflects regular maintenance to protect the longevity of the 1.6L petrol engine.

The 1596cc petrol engine offers a balanced profile for running costs, providing a good mix of pep for motorway driving and efficiency for urban commutes. As a 2016 model, you should expect moderate fuel economy, likely sitting in the mid-50s MPG if driven sensibly.

Insurance groups for the Fiesta are typically affordable, making this an excellent choice for newer drivers. Tax and maintenance costs are also expected to be low, as parts for this model are widely available and inexpensive. We estimate the total annual running cost to be relatively modest for a petrol vehicle of this age.

Because this vehicle has a perfect MOT pass record with no recorded failures, there are no specific historical faults to hunt for. However, you should perform a standard thorough inspection. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion, which can occur on low-usage vehicles, and ensure the battery holds a strong charge.

Pay close attention to the interior condition; with only 14,050 miles, the cabin should look near-new. If there is excessive wear on the driver's seat or steering wheel, it may indicate the mileage has been incorrectly recorded. Finally, listen for any unusual noises from the suspension when test-driving, as components can sometimes stiffen if a car is not driven frequently.

This Blue Ford Fiesta (LT51AND) is an outstanding example of a well-maintained small petrol car. With only 14,050 miles recorded on the odometer as of October 2025, it has covered remarkably low distances for a vehicle nearly ten years old. The MOT history is flawless, showing a consistent string of passes with no recorded failures, suggesting a high standard of care from its previous owners.

While aggregate data is unavailable for this specific model, the Ford Fiesta is widely regarded as a dependable choice in the UK small car segment.
