This 2012 Ford has 13 MOT tests on record with a 92% pass rate and 1,986 miles. The vehicle's safety and reliability are fundamentally compromised.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 1,986 miles over 14 years, with suspiciously low annual usage (e.g., 355 mi/yr before May 2018) that is highly inconsistent with typical UK usage and raises significant odometer fraud concerns.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS tyre failure on 2025-07-15 (test 51,489 mi) — immediate safety risk.
- Mileage of 1,986 miles over 14 years (2012–2026) is extremely low and highly suspicious.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 3/5 stars (2017) is below average for a 2012 vehicle.
Working in its favour

- No recurring failures on critical safety systems (brakes, suspension) beyond the tyre issues.
- No major structural corrosion or emissions failures recorded in the MOT history.
- The 2012 Ford has a 5.4L engine variant, known for its
