AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Ford has 16 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 26,815 miles. The high number of advisories for tyres, coupled with a history of suspension failures, indicates a car that requires careful inspection.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,049 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, showing normal usage over 14 years.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories from Jan 2019 to May 2026 indicate a persistent wear issue.
- Offside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (May 2021) is a major safety failure.
- Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements (Jun 2020) was a dangerous defect.
- High advisory recurrence for tyres suggests a systemic issue with the vehicle's suspension or alignment.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-05-18, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent mileage averaging 8,049 miles/year, showing no suspicious drops or spikes.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT history.
- All past failures and advisories were addressed and passed subsequent retests promptly.
