Our Verdict
A sensible choice for those seeking a diesel hatchback with a relatively consistent MOT record. While the mileage is higher than the model average, the recent clean pass suggests it remains roadworthy.
Given the high mileage relative to the annual average, your primary focus should be on the mechanical integrity of the 1560cc diesel engine. Ask the seller for evidence of regular oil changes and timing belt replacements, as these are critical for high-mileage diesel Fiestas.
When viewing the car, check for any signs of recent work following the June 2025 MOT failure. Although the specific defect wasn't listed in the summary, the fact that a failure occurred just days before a successful pass indicates a repair was made. Ensure you verify that this repair was completed to a professional standard.
As a 1.6L diesel, this Fiesta is designed for efficiency on longer journeys, likely offering better fuel economy than its petrol counterparts. However, buyers should be aware of potential tax bands and insurance groups specific to the 2010 diesel engine variants.
Maintenance costs for this model typically involve standard consumables like tyres and brakes, but at nearly 100,000 miles, more significant component replacements may be due. Expect an estimated annual running cost in the region of £1,200-£1,500, depending on your annual mileage and insurance profile.
Based on the aggregate data for this model, pay close attention to the headlamps, exhaust system, and coil springs, as these are the most common failure points for Fiestas in our database. Check that the headlamp lenses are clear and the beams are aligned.
Additionally, inspect the underside of the vehicle for exhaust corrosion and check the suspension for any signs of worn coil springs or excessive noise when driving over bumps. Because this vehicle has covered significant mileage, a thorough check of the diesel fuel system and turbocharger performance is also advised.
This 2010 Ford Fiesta 1.6 TDCi presents with 97,125 miles on the clock, which is significantly higher than the aggregate model average of 5,835 miles per year. The MOT history shows five recorded tests, including two failures (in 2022 and 2025), though the most recent test in July 2025 was passed with no defects recorded. The vehicle has transitioned through various mileage milestones, currently sitting just under the 100,000-mile mark.
Aggregate data from over 1.5 million vehicles suggests a 77.6% average MOT pass rate for this model, with common issues relating to lighting, exhaust, and suspension components.
