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 22 MOT tests on record with a 68% pass rate and 36,379 miles. While many issues were rectified, the sheer volume of advisories and the nature of the failures warrant a thorough inspection.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,145 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausibly low annual usage, though recent usage has been very low.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension failures (coil springs, anti-roll bar linkage) across multiple tests.
- Multiple tyre advisories (Jun 2021, May 2019) indicate ongoing wear and maintenance needs.
- Brake disc wear advisories (May 2019) suggest potential future brake system costs.
- Exhaust and wheel bearing advisories (May 2019, Jun 2021) show a history of wear.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 7 historical failures
- Valid MOT until December 2026, offering immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- Most MOT failures were immediately rectified, indicating responsive ownership.
