This 2012 Ford has 17 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 86,271 miles. While many issues were resolved, the repeated nature of these faults suggests ongoing maintenance needs.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 10,334 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though annual usage has varied significantly over its 12-year lifespan.

Things to check

  • Jan 2026: Failed MOT for stop lamp, then passed same day, indicating a reactive repair.
  • Jan 2022: Failed MOT for rear tyre damage and front brake disc wear, then passed same day.
  • Jan 2026: Failed MOT for stop lamp, a recurring issue with headlamps in 2017.
  • Jan 2025: Advisory for front brake disc wear, a recurring issue from Jan 2022.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until January 2027, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes.
  • All past failures were immediately rectified and passed on the same or next day, indicating responsive ownership.
  • No major structural corrosion or dangerous defects have been recorded on the MOT history.
