This 2016 Ford has 9 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 14,455 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age raises significant concerns about its true condition and usage.
The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 14,455 miles in Feb 2019, then only 2,109 miles in the next 12 months, followed by a 10-year period of extremely low annual usage (e.g., 555 miles in 2024-2025).
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 33,118 miles over 10 years (Feb 2019: 14,455 mi, Feb 2026: 33,118 mi).
- Recurring brake advisories (Feb 2020, Feb 2021) and suspension advisories (Feb 2021, Feb 2026) suggest ongoing wear.
- First MOT in Feb 2019 at 14,455 miles is unusually late for a 2016 vehicle, raising questions about its early life.
Working in its favour
- Strong MOT pass record with no dangerous defects recorded across 9 tests.
- No major recurring failures, only advisories for wear items.
- Valid MOT until February 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Low annual mileage (3,267 mi/yr) suggests minimal wear and tear on engine.
