Our Verdict

This 2018 Ford Fiesta presents a reassur

When inspecting this Fiesta, verify that the front brake discs and pads noted as wearing thin in 2024 have been replaced, as well as checking the condition of the offside front tyre which showed edge wear in 2023. Examine the rear suspension for any progression of the oil misting noted on the nearside rear shock absorber during the 2022 test. As always, request a comprehensive service history to complement the MOT data before finalising your purchase.

Running costs for this 1.0L petrol Ford Fiesta are expected to be wallet-friendly. Fuel economy is strong for a standard petrol supermini, and insurance falls into a modest group that keeps annual premiums reasonable. Road tax aligns with standard petrol car rates for vehicles registered after April 2017.

Pay close attention to the front braking system, checking the thickness of the pads and the surface condition of the discs following the advisories recorded at the March 2024 MOT test. Inspect the inside edge of the front tyres, referencing the 2023 advisory for wear close to the legal limit. Additionally, inspect the rear shock absorbers for any signs of fluid leakage beyond the light misting noted in 2022, and check common model weak points such as coil springs and headlamp alignment.

First registered in March 2018 and finished in red with a 1084cc petrol engine, this Ford Fiesta has recorded 34,560 miles by its March 2026 test. Its MOT history shows an unbroken run of passes across five annual tests, featuring only minor advisories regarding brake wear, tyre edge wear, and rear shock absorber misting.

The Ford Fiesta performs strongly in aggregate UK data with an average MOT pass rate of 77.7% across more than 1.5 million vehicles analysed.
