This 2012 Ford has 15 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 49,976 miles. The car's age and recurring mechanical advisories warrant a thorough inspection.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,777 miles/year, with a notable drop in annual usage from 2019 to 2023, but no suspicious decreases or round numbers.

Things to check

  • Jul 2025 MOT: Front Inner Brake disc worn, pitted or scored (ADVISORY) — immediate replacement likely.
  • Jul 2025 MOT: Offside Rear Tyre slightly damaged/cracking (ADVISORY) — indicates ongoing tyre wear.
  • Jul 2022 MOT: Nearside Front Inner Tyre

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until July 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or round numbers.
  • No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • Immediate retests after failures show owner's proactive maintenance.
