AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2013 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 31,444 miles. The vehicle also carries a high-risk head gasket issue from community knowledge.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,183 miles/year, with a notable 1,221-mile increase between Nov 2024 and May 2026, suggesting a period of low use.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories across 11 tests (Nov 2020, Nov 2022, Nov 2023, Nov 2024) indicate ongoing wear.
- Recurring brake disc advisories (Nov 2020, Nov 2024) suggest a pattern of maintenance needs.
- May 2026 MOT shows 'Brake disc worn, pitted or scored, but not seriously weakened' — an immediate concern.
- Community-reported 'Blown head gasket in 2.0L Ecoboost engines (2013+)' is a high-risk, unverified issue for this 2013 Ford.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until April 2027 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent, normal annual mileage (8,183 mi/yr) aligns with typical UK usage.
- No major recurring failures in critical safety systems like brakes or suspension.
- All prior failures were immediately rectified, showing responsive owner maintenance.
