AI verdict AVOID 22/100

AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2004 Ford has 22 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 22,301 miles. This makes a reliable assessment impossible and presents significant undisclosed risks.

Mileage data is completely absent for the first 13 years of the vehicle's life, with only 9,000 miles recorded between 2004 and 2017, and then a suspiciously low average of 3,000 miles per year thereafter.

Things to check

  • Complete absence of MOT history from 2007 to 2020 (13-year gap).
  • No mileage data recorded for the first 13 years of the vehicle's life (2004-2017).
  • Mileage trajectory is highly suspicious, averaging only 3,000 miles/year since 2017.
  • Recurring advisories for suspension and subframe corrosion across multiple tests.

Working in its favour

  • Vehicle has a valid MOT until November 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recorded test failures across 8 MOT tests, suggesting no immediate safety concerns.
  • Consistent annual MOT testing since 2018, showing regular vehicle checks.
