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

This 2009 Ford has 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 28,675 miles. The recurring brake advisories and a history of severe engine issues (head gasket, overheating) are critical factors for a buyer.

The vehicle shows normal usage with 28,675 miles over 17 years, averaging 7,435 miles/year, but a significant 2024 service gap and low recent annual mileage (e.g., 2,382 miles in 2025) warrant investigation.

Things to check

  • Recurring front brake disc advisories (Aug 2019, Sep 2025) indicate ongoing wear and potential future costs.
  • Severe engine overheating and head gasket issues (community-reported) are critical for a 2009 diesel, despite no MOT evidence.
  • Low recent annual mileage (e.g., 2,382 miles in 2025) after a period of high usage could signal neglect or a change in use.
  • A 2024 service gap in MOT history suggests potential periods of inactivity or lack of maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • No MOT failures recorded across 6 tests, demonstrating a generally well-maintained vehicle.
  • Consistent, normal mileage trajectory (7,435 miles/year) aligns with typical UK usage.
  • Current valid MOT until September 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • No recent dangerous defects or major failures recorded on the MOT history.
