2022 Ford Fiesta ST Line Edition Tdci

CarHunch analysed 134 real MOT records for the 2022 Ford Fiesta ST Line Edition Tdci. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

This 2022 Fiesta ST-Line TDCI is significantly more reliable than the UK average, with a 95.5% first-time pass rate versus the national 80%—a genuine standout result. The dangerous defect rate of just 2.2% is well below concerning levels, so safety isn't a worry for this cohort.

At just under 20,000 miles on average, these cars are still relatively fresh, which explains the strong MOT performance and minimal failure rate of 0.05 per vehicle. The low advisory count of 0.4 per car suggests few emerging wear issues, so if you're buying one, a pre-purchase inspection should focus on service history and any accident damage rather than mechanical red flags.

What to check before buying a 2022 Ford Fiesta ST Line Edition Tdci

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
