This 2012 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 19,548 miles. The recurring tyre issues, combined with a mileage anomaly, suggest potential underlying problems or a lack of proper maintenance.
The vehicle shows extremely low usage, averaging only 2,734 miles per year, with a significant drop in annual mileage from 2019 onwards, indicating a potential mileage anomaly.
Things to check
- Very low mileage: 19,548 miles in 14 years (Jul 2018–Jul 2025) — well below UK average.
- Recurring tyre failures: Nearside Front Tyre had ply exposed (Jul 2019 advisory) and Offside Front Tyre had cut in tread (Jul 2020 failure).
- Dangerous tyre defects: Both front tyres failed due to ply/cords exposed (Jul 2020 failure).
- Mileage anomaly: Significant drop in annual mileage from 2019 onwards (e.g., +2,270 miles in 2018–2019, then +1,125 miles in 2021).
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-07-08, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recurring major mechanical failures (e.g., no repeated emissions, brake, or suspension failures).
- Immediate retest passes after failures, showing issues were addressed.
- No evidence of Cat N/S write-off or outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
