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

This 2007 Ford has 22 MOT tests on record with a 59% pass rate and 39,507 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2026-03-25, which is highly irregular.

The mileage trajectory shows normal usage until Jan 2024, but a critical 19-year gap in MOT history means no mileage data is available for the majority of its life.

Things to check

  • MOT status 'Not valid' with expiry 2026-03-25 is highly irregular for a 2007 vehicle.
  • 5 test failures and 22 advisories on brakes and lights indicate chronic neglect.
  • Mileage trajectory is incomplete for 19 years, a major red flag for a 2007 car.
  • Recurring issues with brake hose, disc, and exhaust point to systemic structural problems.

Working in its favour

  • No specific green flags are present in the MOT history for this vehicle.
