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

This 2006 Ford has 13 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 87,035 miles. While mileage is consistent, the sheer volume of past failures and current advisories suggests significant ongoing maintenance and potential safety risks.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 6,808 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though a significant 3-year gap in MOT history is noted.

Things to check

  • Recurring major failures in brakes (6 times) and lights (7 times) across multiple MOTs indicate systemic neglect.
  • Exhaust system advisories (4 times) and failures (2 times) suggest chronic corrosion or poor repair.
  • Windscreen wiper failures (2 times) and advisories (1 time) point to a pattern of neglected safety items.
  • The 2023 MOT gap is a significant concern, as it may indicate periods of inactivity or unrecorded issues.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes.
  • Valid MOT until April 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering.
  • The 2018-04-27 test passed with a clean MOT record.
