Insight summary

Ford Fiesta Trend is a rare model in this snapshot, with 8,276 represented vehicles and 0.02% of the active UK pool tracked by AutoRank. For the last 5 years, it has a pass rate of 88.5% from 28,390 MOT tests, with a reliability score of 52. The current pool shows an average of 32,479 miles and an average age of 5.1 years. Petrol leads the fuel split, followed by other, and the most frequent defect themes are shock absorbers, tyre condition and lighting. The practical read is that the Ford Fiesta Trend looks like a solid used-car baseline rather than a rare find, with age, mileage and common wear items doing most of the explaining.
