AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2010 Ford has 20 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 28,452 miles. The mileage trajectory is suspicious, with a significant jump in recent years, and the vehicle's age compounds these problems.
The mileage trajectory shows a significant increase in recent years, with 28,452 miles in 2013 and 131,909 miles by Feb 2026, suggesting a change in usage or potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Feb 2026): Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))
- Dangerous tyre defects recorded on 3 separate occasions (Mar 2022, Feb 2025, Feb 2026).
- Recurring major suspension failures and advisories across 4 tests (Mar 2021, Mar 2022, Mar 2024, Feb 2026).
- Consistent pattern of tyre wear advisories and failures from Mar 2019 to Feb 2026.
Working in its favour
- Mileage is consistent with UK average, averaging 8,160 miles/year.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until March 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
