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 15 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 25,346 miles. The mileage trajectory is highly suspicious, showing extremely low annual usage for several years, which is a major red flag for a 13-year-old vehicle.

The mileage trajectory is highly suspicious, showing extremely low annual usage (e.g., 1,853 miles from Aug 2020 to Aug 2021) after initial high usage, indicating potential odometer fraud or long periods of inactivity.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS defect: Brakes failed on 2019-07-31, indicating severe safety neglect.
  • DANGEROUS defect: Tyres failed on 2019-07-31, showing critical safety issues.
  • Recurring major failures: Tyres, Windscreen, Lights, and Engine/Oil across multiple tests.
  • Mileage anomalies: Extremely low annual usage (e.g., 1,853 miles 2020-2021) suggests odometer fraud.

Working in its favour

  • Current MOT valid until 2026-08-18, indicating it is roadworthy for now.
  • No recent major failures or dangerous defects recorded on the latest MOT.
  • Consistent mileage readings since 2018, despite initial low usage.
  • No evidence of Cat N/S write-off markers in the provided data.
