AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2013 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 36,205 miles. The recent MOT history shows consistent maintenance of wear items, but the underlying engine reliability is a significant concern.

The vehicle shows normal annual usage (7,952 miles/yr) until 2025, but a critical 17-year history of owner-reported engine issues for a 2.0L Ecoboost engine is a major red flag.

Things to check

  • Critical 17-year history of owner-reported engine issues (head gasket, overheating, timing chain) for a 2.0L Ecoboost engine.
  • Recent MOT history (2017-2025) shows consistent maintenance of wear items (tyres, brakes, lights).
  • Mileage trajectory is normal (7,952 miles/yr) until 2025, but the underlying engine reliability is a significant concern.
  • The 2017-11-30 failed MOT for position lamps and stop lamp, then passed same day, indicates a quick fix.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-08-12, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent annual mileage (7,952 miles/yr) aligns with typical UK usage.
  • All 2 MOT failures (2017, 2022) were immediately rectified and passed on the same day.
  • No recurring major structural failures or dangerous defects in the MOT history.
