This 2013 Ford has 12 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 46,538 miles. The high mileage for its age and repeated issues with critical safety components warrant a thorough inspection.
The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 12,047 miles per year, with a notable drop in recent years (e.g., 6,358 miles from Oct 2024 to Oct 2025).
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake failure on 2021-10-01 (105,232 mi) after ADVISORY on 2020-10-01 (97,195 mi).
- Recurring suspension arm advisories (Oct 2022) escalated to MAJOR failure (Sep 2023) and still present (Oct 2025).
- Recurring tyre advisories (Jun 2019, Oct 2020, Oct 2022) indicate ongoing wear and maintenance needs.
- High mileage (154,607 mi) for a 2013 vehicle suggests more wear and tear on components.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-10-28, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- No outstanding MOT failures or dangerous defects since the 2021 retest.
- Immediate retest passes after failures demonstrate owner's responsiveness to repairs.
