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

This 2016 Ford has 10 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 58,645 miles. While issues were addressed, the repeated tyre issues and a recent stop lamp failure warrant careful consideration.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 11,896 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, showing normal usage.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Aug 2024): Nearside Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))
  • Dangerous tyre defects recorded on 2022-08-25 and 2023-08-25, indicating a history of critical wear.
  • Major failure for Nearside Rear Stop lamp on 2022-08-25, showing a recent electrical system issue.
  • Recurring advisories for Windscreen damage (2020-08-25, 2024-08-25) and Brake disc wear (2024-08-25) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-09-14, providing peace of mind for the next two years.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory, averaging 11,896 miles per year, indicating normal usage.
  • All dangerous tyre defects were immediately rectified and passed subsequent MOTs, showing responsive ownership.
  • No major structural or engine failures recorded in the MOT history, which is a positive sign.
