2019 Ford Fiesta Trend MOT pass rate: 89.9% (11,560 tests)
Is the 2019 Fiesta Trend getting worse?
Pass rate of 2019-registered cars across recent test years:
| Test year | Pass rate | |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 90.9% +1.1 vs same-age |
|
| 2024 | 89.7% +1.3 vs same-age |
|
| 2025 | 89.1% +2.1 vs same-age |
The raw rate normally falls as cars age. The “vs same-age” figure compares this cohort with all UK cars registered in the same year, so normal ageing is not mistaken for a bad model year.

What mileage is too high for a 2019 Fiesta Trend?
