Our Verdict
Recommended. This is a low-mileage examp
Given the low mileage, ensure the service history confirms regular oil and filter changes, as infrequent use can sometimes lead to neglected maintenance intervals. Check that the offside door mirror side repeater, which was noted as damaged in 2023, has been repaired or replaced.
Verify the current state of the tyres; the 2023 MOT record highlighted perished rear tyres, so check for any signs of cracking or uneven wear on the current set. Negotiate based on the remaining tread depth and the date of the last full service.
The 998cc petrol engine is designed for urban efficiency, typically offering low annual road tax and placing the vehicle in a lower insurance group. Maintenance costs for this model are generally manageable due to the widespread availability of parts in the UK.
Estimated annual running costs will be dominated by fuel and insurance, with routine servicing required annually to maintain the engine's longevity. Based on the engine size and model type, costs remain competitive for a small hatchback.
Carefully inspect the tyres, specifically looking for perishing or edge wear, as this was a recorded issue in the 2023 MOT test. Check the headlamp alignment and the condition of the windscreen wipers, as these caused a failure in February 2024.
Using the model's aggregate data, pay close attention to the exhaust system and coil springs for any signs of corrosion or fatigue, as these are among the top failure reasons for Fiestas. Ensure the headlamps are clear and functioning correctly, as lighting is a frequent MOT failure point for this model.
This blue 2018 Ford Fiesta has covered 30,983 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average. The MOT history is generally positive, featuring two consecutive passes without any defects in 2025 and 2026. Earlier records show minor failures and advisories related to consumables and lighting, which is typical for a vehicle of this age.
The Fiesta has a respectable average MOT pass rate of 77.7% across 1.5 million vehicles, though headlamps and exhaust systems are common weak points.
