This 2013 Ford has 3 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 44,636 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the low mileage and recurring suspension issues warrant a thorough inspection.
The vehicle shows 44,636 miles at its first MOT in June 2016, which is significantly below the UK average of 89,834 miles for a 13-year-old vehicle, suggesting potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 44,636 miles (June 2016) vs. 89,834 miles (n=274 FORDs).
- 2017-05-13: Failed MOT for 'Nearside Headlamp aim beam image obviously incorrect' — a safety-critical defect.
- 2017-05-13: Recurring front lower suspension arm bush wear (both sides) — 'deteriorated but not resulting in excessive movement'.
- 2016-06-28: Both rear shock absorbers had 'light misting of oil' — early wear indicator.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2018-05-12, indicating it passed its last required test.
- No major recurring failures on critical systems like brakes or steering.
- Consistent annual mileage (7,160 miles/year) after initial low reading.
- No evidence of Cat N/S write-off or outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
