Can someone let me know why this 18 plate fiesta is the same price as 4/5 year older models with similar mileage?
I’ve looked at the engine online and summarised it’s basically an eco boost but without the wet belt, so I would imagine that this removes the worry or issues and the costs that come with the eco boom.
Ignore those who are saying it’s a 2014 model.
It’s not. It’s a 7th generation Fiesta. If it was a 2014 model, it’d be a 6th gen (B479 was introduced in 2017).
DVLA states it’s a 2018 model. I determined it was a private reg before I even looked it up. Use your heads, people.
This is definitely a 2018. People in this thread clearly don’t know what they’re talking about. The mk8 Fiesta was released in 2017.
The 1.1 is the “lowest” engine that came in the mk8. It also features a wet belt like its “ecoboom” sibling. I do believe they’re supposed to be more reliable, but any wet belt is an expense waiting to happen IMO.
My partner had 2 mk8 Fiestas. As lovely as they were to drive and well specced, they both were rejected under the CRA.
Maybe something is wrong with it or they’re desperate for a sale
Hardly anyone is buying cars this time of year
Never heard of the 1.1 tivct engine, I thought anything past that year was the .9 ecoboost. Still sounds like way too much money for the year and spec anyway
Car I got from the place using that background was a bit of a shitter and had damage they didn’t disclose. I wouldn’t buy from them.

Personally, I would avoid any listings with these default images. These are BCA auction house photos, which means they garage/dealer has listed the car without giving an arse to give it a look over before listing it. BCA is also the same company as WeBuyAnyCar so could’ve been trading in with x problems, but the garage won’t know that.
But 2018 is 4-5 years agoooooo oh wAIT
“18 plate”
>Plate starts with 64
edit: Odd private reg – it’s a 2018.
Avoid Ecoboost any ford Ecoboost, timing belt problems will come to haunt soon enough
What’s the point if three door fiestas?
It must be a typo, i put the plate into a reg checker and it turns out it is a 2014 model. Your assumption was correct, it is 4 years older.

I bought my A5 Convertible for £6895… Granted a few years difference.. but it’s not a poverty Fiesta.
