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 19 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 8,770 miles. The 3-year gap in MOT history and a 1.6L engine timing chain failure are also critical factors.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 8,770 miles over 20 years, averaging only 2,788 miles per year, which is a significant anomaly and raises serious questions about its true usage and potential odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 8,770 miles in 20 years (Dec 2025) — a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.
  • Recurring brake hose advisories (5 tests) and tyre advisories (3 tests) across multiple years indicate chronic neglect of critical safety systems.
  • One major failure for windscreen washer (Dec 2024) followed by immediate retest PASS suggests a 'just fixed' tactic to hide deeper issues.
  • A 1.6L engine timing chain failure is documented in the community knowledge for this model, posing a significant future repair risk.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-12-17, indicating current roadworthiness and recent safety checks.
  • No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects (e.g., brakes, steering) have been recorded on the MOT history.
  • Consistent annual mileage increases since 2018, despite being very low, suggest regular use rather than prolonged storage.
  • The vehicle has been taxed continuously since registration, demonstrating ongoing legal compliance.
