AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2018 Ford has 6 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 10,520 miles. The car's low annual mileage for its age, combined with a recent coolant leak advisory, warrants a thorough investigation.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 3,987 miles/year, averaging 10,520 miles over 8 years, which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles/year and raises odometer fraud concerns.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 3,987 miles/year (Jun 2021–Sep 2025).
- Recent coolant leak advisory on 2024-06-24, a known Ford EcoBoost weakness.
- Front and rear brake pads wearing thin (Jun 2024), indicating imminent replacement costs.
- Front tyres worn close to legal limit (Jun 2023), suggesting a need for new rubber soon.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed — clean at last test
- Perfect MOT pass record with no failures across 6 tests since 2018.
- No dangerous defects or major failures recorded in the MOT history.
- Consistent annual mileage increases, despite being below average.
