AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2014 Ford has 11 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 21,818 miles. The vehicle's age and mileage trajectory, combined with severe owner-reported faults, present an unacceptable level of risk.
The vehicle shows normal usage with 7,623 miles/year, but a significant drop in annual mileage from 11,455 miles (2019-2020) to 3,022 miles (2023-2024) is a major red flag.
Things to check
- Recurring major failures: steering rack gaiter (Nov 2020), CV boot (Nov 2020), and exhaust (Jul 2025).
- Recurring advisories: anti-roll bar link (5 tests), tyres (5 tests), brakes (4 tests), and suspension (2 tests).
- Significant mileage drop: from 11,455 miles (2019-2020) to 3,022 miles (2023-2024).
- Multiple owner-reported faults: turbo fail, blown head gasket, overheating, and timing chain issues.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until July 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage trajectory for its age, averaging 7,623 miles/year.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering.
- All past failures and advisories were addressed and retested successfully.
