This 2006 Ford has 12 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 13,850 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' and has been SORN since 2017, making it unroadworthy and uninsurable.
The mileage trajectory shows normal annual usage until Oct 2015, when a significant 20,894-mile jump occurred, followed by unusually low annual mileage, indicating a potential odometer fraud or a period of inactivity.
Things to check
- MOT expired 2017-12-20; vehicle has been SORN for 7+ years, making it unroadworthy.
- Multiple major failures: steering rack gaiter (2012), power steering leak (2012), and suspension (2012).
- Recurring advisories on brakes (5 instances) and steering components (ball joint, 2012, 2013, 2015).
- Unusually high mileage jump of 20,894 miles before Oct 2015, suggesting potential odometer fraud.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- No consistent recurring failures on the same system across multiple years.
- The vehicle has been consistently registered and maintained since its first MOT in 2009.
- No evidence of Cat N/S write-off markers or outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
