Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Focus your attention on the most recent MOT advisories from April 2026. Specifically, ask if the nearside rear brakes have been adjusted or repaired to address the imbalance noted by the tester. You should also verify that the offside front headlight has been secured.
As MOT records only confirm roadworthiness, you must independently verify the service history. Check for regular oil and filter changes for the 1084cc engine to ensure the mechanical health of the vehicle beyond the statutory testing requirements.
The 1.1L engine is designed for economy and meets Euro 6 AG standards, ensuring it is compatible with low-emission zones. Insurance costs for the Fiesta are generally competitive, though this will depend on the driver's profile.
Typical maintenance will involve annual servicing and periodic tyre replacements. Given the engine size and fuel type, the vehicle is positioned as a low-cost option for urban commuting and short-distance travel.
Inspect the braking system, particularly the nearside rear, to ensure the imbalance mentioned in the April 2026 MOT has been rectified. Check the offside front headlight to ensure it is now firmly fixed in place.
While this specific vehicle has not failed for these issues, aggregate data for over 1.5 million Fiestas highlights headlamps, exhaust systems, and coil springs as common failure points. A visual inspection of the exhaust for corrosion and the suspension for leaks or cracks is advised.
This grey 1.1L petrol Fiesta has covered 41,957 miles since its first registration in January 2019. The MOT history is notably clean, with passes recorded every year from 2022 through to April 2026. While the most recent test included minor advisories, the overall record is stable compared to the wider model population.
The Ford Fiesta has a documented average MOT pass rate of 77.7%, with common weaknesses typically found in the lighting and exhaust systems.

- 1.0 EcoBoost Wet Belt DegradationSerious
Early Mk8 1.0 EcoBoost engines still use the oil-bath timing-belt setup that sheds material if servicing or oil quality is wrong, eventually starving the engine of oil pressure.
- Coolant Bottle, Hose and Thermostat LeaksSerious
Expansion tanks, hoses and thermostat housings can leak coolant gradually, and ignored low-level warnings risk overheating and head-gasket or engine damage.
