Our Verdict
Consider with caution due to recent MOT failures, but the 2015 Ford Fiesta remains a practical used purchase with a generally reliable reputation.
Prioritise checking the brake system, as the 2026 MOT noted brake fluid near minimum levels and front brake pads wearing thin in 2024. Insist on a full service history to verify repairs for the missing wheel nut and faulty rear fog lamp. Negotiate a discount for the recent failures, but be aware that the 1.2L engine's reliability is well-documented. Verify if the tyres mentioned in 2024 MOTs have been replaced.
The 1.2L petrol engine offers decent fuel economy, likely 40-50 mpg on the motorway. As a 2015 model, it falls in VED band B (£145/yr). Insurance group 15-17 would make premiums moderate. Regular maintenance costs are typical for the model, but the recent MOT failures may indicate higher-than-average repair expenses. Estimated annual running cost: £1,000-£1,200.
Focus on the brake fluid reservoir and brake pads for leaks/wear. Check the front windscreen washer pump and nozzle alignment. Inspect all wheel nuts for tightness, particularly the offside front. Test the rear fog lamp's light output and lens integrity. Examine tyres for cracks or uneven wear, as noted in 2024. Verify that all MOT remedial work was completed before purchase.
This 2015 Ford Fiesta has a mostly clean MOT history but shows recurring maintenance issues in its final year. The 1.2L petrol engine and blue colour are standard for the model. While the 22,521-mile reading is above average for an 11-year-old vehicle, the car has no major mechanical failures recorded prior to 2024.
While no aggregate data exists for this specific model, the Ford Fiesta has a strong reputation for reliability in the UK, particularly with 1.2L petrol engines.
