This 2013 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 52,317 miles. The car has been well-used, but specific wear items need attention.
The vehicle shows consistent high annual mileage averaging 11,865 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating normal usage.
Things to check
- Major failure: Offside Front Lower Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn (Mar 2022) — critical safety component.
- Recurring tyre advisories: Multiple tyre wear advisories across 5 tests (Mar 2019, Mar 2021, Mar 2022, Mar 2023, Mar 2024) — consistent wear pattern.
- High mileage: 144,634 miles (Mar 2025) — well above average for a 2013 vehicle, expect accelerated wear.
Working in its favour
- Consistent mileage: 11,865 miles/year average, no suspicious drops or round numbers.
- No recurring failures: Major suspension failure (Mar 2022) was the only structural failure, not repeated.
- Immediate retest passes: All 2 failures were immediately rectified and passed on the same or next day.
- Long MOT validity: Current MOT expiry is 2026-03-27, providing peace of mind for the next 3 years.
