Our Verdict
This 2009 Ford Fiesta shows a generally positive recent MOT testing record with consecutive passes in 2024, 2025, and 2026. Buyers should still verify the mechanical condition thoroughly given the vehicle's age, despite clean recent passes.
When viewing this 2009 Ford Fiesta, check the physical condition against the recorded mileage of 85,269 miles to ensure it aligns with normal wear and tear. Inspect the service record carefully to see if maintenance has kept pace with the higher-than-average annual mileage. Given that model-wide failure points include headlamps, exhausts, and coil springs, pay close attention to these components during your inspection.
The 1.25-litre petrol engine sits in a moderate insurance group and offers reasonable fuel economy for everyday commuting. Road tax is determined by the vehicle's CO2 emissions profile for 2009. Maintenance costs should remain manageable due to the wide availability of spare parts for the Ford Fiesta, though routine consumables will need regular checking.
Inspect the headlamps, exhaust system, and coil springs carefully, as these represent the top MOT failure reasons for the Ford Fiesta model aggregate. Check the suspension components and steering gear thoroughly, and verify the operation of all external lighting. Review the administrative details surrounding the same-day passes in 2024 and 2025 to understand what prompted the initial refusals.
First registered in February 2009 with a 1242cc petrol engine and cream finish, this Ford Fiesta has covered 85,269 miles by its January 2026 test. The MOT history records two initial failures in January 2024 and January 2025 that were subsequently passed on the same day, followed by a clean pass in January 2026. This mileage is notably higher than the model average of 5,835 miles per year for this age group.
Ford Fiestas show an average MOT pass rate of 77.6% across over 1.5 million tested vehicles, with headlamps, exhausts, and coil springs forming the most common failure reasons.
