Our Verdict
Recommended as a modern, late-model hatc
The primary point of negotiation for this vehicle is the mileage, which is significantly above the model average. You should carefully review the service history to ensure that maintenance intervals have been adhered to, given the higher annual usage.
Check for any remaining manufacturer warranty that may still apply to a 2023 registration. Ensure all documentation for the 1.5L engine variant is present and that there are no outstanding recalls for this specific model year.
The 1.5L petrol engine is designed for a balance of efficiency and urban performance. Insurance costs will be governed by the standard Ford Fiesta insurance group for this engine size, and road tax will follow the standard petrol rates for a 2023 registration.
Maintenance costs for the Fiesta are generally competitive due to the widespread availability of parts. However, with the higher mileage, you should budget for sooner replacements of wear-and-tear items like tyres and brake pads.
Although the February 2026 MOT pass recorded no defects, the model aggregate data indicates that headlamps, exhaust systems, and coil springs are common failure points for Fiestas. A physical inspection of these areas is advised.
Given the 39,211 miles recorded, pay close attention to the condition of the interior upholstery and the tread depth of the tyres. Check for any signs of wear that correlate with the higher-than-average mileage for a 2023 vehicle.
This green 2023 Ford Fiesta 1.5L petrol has recorded 39,211 miles as of its last MOT in February 2026. The MOT history shows a failure and a subsequent pass on the same day, with no defects recorded in the final pass. While the vehicle is relatively new, it has been used more intensively than the typical Fiesta of this age.
The Ford Fiesta shows a respectable average MOT pass rate of 77.6% across a vast dataset of over 1.5 million vehicles.
