AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Ford has 9 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 41,440 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the repeated failures and advisories for critical safety systems warrant a thorough inspection.
The vehicle shows normal usage at 8,422 miles/year, but a concerning drop in annual mileage from 18,484 miles (2019-2023) to 996 miles (2023-2025) suggests a change in usage or potential underlying issues.
Things to check
- Recurring brake system failures (May 2023, Jun 2025) and advisories (May 2023, Jun 2025) indicate ongoing issues.
- Suspension arm wear advisory (May 2023) and subsequent failures suggest a structural neglect pattern.
- Major stop lamp failure (May 2023) and multiple minor light defects (Jun 2025) point to electrical system wear.
- Significant drop in annual mileage from 18,484 miles (2019-2023) to 996 miles (2023-2025) is a red flag for potential underlying issues.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until June 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage trajectory (41,440 mi over 10 years) suggests no odometer fraud.
- No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) is present in the provided data.
