This 2017 Ford has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate. The vehicle also shows significant gaps in its MOT history.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,987 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, but there are unexplained MOT gaps in 2021 and 2024.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension advisories (2022, 2023) escalated to major failures (Dec 2023, Jan 2025).
- Recurring tyre advisories (Jan 2023) escalated to major failures (Jan 2025).
- Major tyre pressure monitoring system malfunctioning advisory (Jan 2023) is a safety concern.
- Significant MOT history gaps in 2021 and 2024 suggest periods of unrecorded use or issues.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until January 2027, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistently low annual mileage (4,987 miles/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
