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

This 2015 Ford has 13 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 46,308 miles. While mileage is consistent, the extensive history of issues suggests a high-maintenance vehicle.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 10,621 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though a 2021 service gap is noted.

Things to check

  • Recurring major failures in suspension (Jan 2022, Jan 2023) and brakes (Jan 2023) indicate systemic neglect.
  • Extensive history of recurring advisories on tyres, lights, and exhaust components shows a pattern of deferred maintenance.
  • The 2021 service gap in MOT history is a red flag for potential unrecorded periods of neglect or off-road use.
  • The Jan 2026 MOT shows an ADVISORY for a coil spring, a common wear item for this model.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes.
  • Valid MOT until January 2027, offering immediate peace of mind.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering.
  • No persistent DANGEROUS defects that were never addressed.
