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

This 2014 Ford has 11 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 13,570 miles. While it has a clean recent MOT pass, the low mileage and recurring wear items warrant careful consideration.

The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 48,847 miles over 12 years (Jan 2014 to Sep 2025), which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year for its age.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 48,847 mi (Jan 2014 to Sep 2025) vs typical 89,834 mi for a 2014 Ford.
  • Recurring tyre advisories across 6 tests (Jun 2018, Sep 2020, Oct 2021, Oct 2022, Oct 2023, Sep 2024) indicate chronic wear.
  • Recurring brake advisories across 4 tests (Sep 2020, Oct 2022, Oct 2023, Sep 2024) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
  • Offside Front Headlamp aim failure (Sep 2025) followed by a PASS, but no advisory for the correction.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-10-10, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in its MOT history.
  • Consistent retest passes after failures, showing prompt owner attention to rectify issues.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the MOT records.
