This 2018 Ford has 7 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 11,680 miles. While there's a history of engine-related faults for the 2.0L EcoBoost engine, the 1.0L EcoBoost engine in this vehicle is a different model and appears to be well-maintained.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,375 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in its MOT history.

Things to check

  • One minor MOT failure in Jan 2026 (35,173 mi) — verify immediate retest details.
  • Low annual mileage (4,375 mi/yr) suggests limited use, which can impact component wear.

Working in its favour

  • Clean MOT history with 6 passes and only 1 minor failure in 7 tests.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (4,375 mi/yr) indicates light use.
  • No recurring major failures or dangerous defects found in the MOT record.
  • Valid MOT until January 2027, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
