This 2018 Ford has 7 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 26,251 miles. However, a significant mileage anomaly and a recurring tyre advisory warrant careful investigation.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 4,085 miles/year, with a notable 1,526-mile increase between April 2022 and March 2023, suggesting a potential odometer discrepancy.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below average: 26,251 miles over 8 years (UK average: 65,014 miles).
  • Mileage anomaly: 1,526-mile increase between April 2022 (27,777 mi) and March 2023 (29,529 mi).
  • Recurring tyre advisories: 11 advisories across 3 tests (Mar 2023, Mar 2024, Mar 2025) indicate chronic wear.

Working in its favour

  • Strong MOT record: 6 of 7 tests passed with no dangerous defects.
  • Valid MOT until April 2027, offering peace of mind for the next 3 years.
  • Consistent low mileage: 26,251 miles over 8 years suggests light use and potential longevity.
