2014 Ford Fiesta 1.2L Petrol · OU14 TKT

The 1242cc petrol engine is generally situated in a lower insurance group, making it an economical choice for newer drivers or those looking to keep premiums down. Fuel economy for this engine variant is typically efficient for urban driving, though actual figures will depend on driving style.

Maintenance costs for the Fiesta are generally considered manageable due to the high volume of parts available in the UK. Expect typical annual running costs to include fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing, with an estimated total annual outlay in the region of £1,100-£1,400 depending on annual mileage.

While this specific vehicle has no recorded MOT failures, the aggregate data for this model suggests paying close attention to the headlamps, exhaust system, and coil springs, as these are common failure points across the wider Fiesta fleet. Check that the headlamp lenses are clear and not clouded.

Inspect the underside of the car for any signs of corrosion on the exhaust, and check the suspension components for any play or noise when driving over bumps. Given the low mileage, also inspect the tyres for age-related cracking, even if the tread depth appears sufficient.
