Is the 2012 Ford Fiesta reliable?
Hi im considering buying a ford fiesta 2012 1.5 TDCI Zetec 75PS 3DR. It has 118,000 miles on it and is 5950 euro. Which maybe I could bargain to 5500. It has a service history and motor check just wondering are these relaible cars ? Is 118000 a lot of Milage or could I get a few years out of it . Im looking for something to last me really 3/4 years at least.
Our answer:
Hi Siobhan,
That era of Ford Fiesta diesel is a good, sound, reliable car that should easily give you service for another four years – at the very least. It appears to be fairly priced and has the requisite service history to back up its provenance, so provided you keep servicing it and looking after it, there’s no reason it couldn’t do another 118,000 miles.
