AI verdict CAUTION 30/100

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 28,195 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the history of tyre issues and a low mileage for its age present significant risks.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before April 2021 (30 mi/yr equivalent), followed by normal usage, indicating a potential period of inactivity or incorrect recording.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre failures and advisories across 6+ tests (2018-2026) indicate chronic neglect.
  • Major exhaust emissions failure on 2018-07-05 and 2019-07-30 suggests underlying engine issues.
  • Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low mileage (30 mi/yr equivalent) before April 2021 is a major red flag.
  • Recent tyre advisories on 2026-04-29 (Nearside Front Tyre worn close to limit) and 2026-04-29 (Offside Front Tyre worn close to limit) are immediate concerns.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-04-27 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history, indicating no immediate safety hazards.
  • Consistent annual mileage post-2021, averaging 6,309 miles/year, is normal for a diesel.
  • No recurring brake or suspension failures, which are critical safety components.
