This 2018 Ford has 9 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 16,009 miles. While these were addressed, the repeated advisories for tyre wear suggest a need for careful inspection.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,563 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 16,009 miles recorded over 8 years.
Things to check
- Major tyre failure on 2024-01-04 for Nearside Rear Tyre, indicating a significant safety concern.
- Recurring tyre advisories from 2021-01-08 onwards, suggesting a persistent wear pattern or alignment issue.
- Missing Nearside Side repeater on 2021-01-08, a safety-critical electrical component.
- Low annual mileage (4,563 miles/yr) for an 8-year-old vehicle may indicate limited use or neglect.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-01-29, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (4,563 miles/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
- All major and minor failures were promptly rectified, demonstrating responsible ownership.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT history.
