Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and a thorough mech
When viewing this Fiesta, prioritize a physical inspection of the suspension and wheel condition. The MOT history shows multiple failures for distorted wheels in 2024 and worn axle swivel pins in 2026, which suggests the vehicle may have encountered significant road impacts or has high wear in the running gear.
Ask the seller for evidence that the recent axle bush repairs were completed to a high standard. You should also check the tyres for uneven wear, as the repeated wheel distortion issues could indicate underlying alignment or suspension problems. Ensure the windscreen, which has been flagged as damaged in multiple tests, has been replaced or repaired.
As a 1.4L petrol model, this Fiesta is generally positioned in a lower insurance group and tax band, making it relatively economical for urban driving. Fuel economy for this engine size is typically moderate, suitable for a small hatchback of this era.
Maintenance costs for a 2007 Fiesta are usually manageable, but you should budget for more frequent suspension and brake component replacements given the recorded history of disc wear and axle bush failures. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic maintenance, fall in the mid-range for a vehicle of this age.
Specifically inspect the rear axle and suspension bushes; the 2026 failure for 'swivel pin and/or bush excessively worn' is a significant indicator of wear. Additionally, examine all four alloy or steel wheels for any signs of bending, cracking, or distortion, following the multiple failures recorded in April 2024.
Check the braking system, specifically the front discs, as the 2025 MOT noted pitting and scoring on the inner faces. Finally, verify the condition of the windscreen to ensure the damage noted in 2024 and 2025 has been addressed and does not present a safety risk.
This 2007 black Ford Fiesta 1.4 petrol has covered 115,608 miles as of its last MOT in April 2026. The vehicle's history shows a pattern of failures related to structural components, specifically wheels and axle bushes, alongside several windscreen advisories. Its mileage is significantly higher than the model average of 5,779 miles per year.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 77.7% MOT pass rate, with common failures often relating to headlamps, exhausts, and coil springs.
